Inter vs Barcelona Bet Builder Tips, Betting Preview

Nobody has given away more fouls in either the Inter Milan or Barcelona squad in the Champions League this season than Denzel Dumfries.

Inter’s Dutch international full-back has committed 19 fouls in his 10 appearances in European competition so far this season, that’s an average of 1.90 fouls per game.

Dumfries, who also has 2 yellow cards against his name, will know what to expect from the Barcelona attack following the pair’s 3-3 draw in Catalonia last week in which the 29-year-old committed 2 of Inter’s 11 fouls.

We’re expecting Barcelona’s tricky wingers to cause Dumfries another headache on Tuesday night and have backed the full-back to commit 2+ fouls once again.

Barcelona winger Raphinha has featured in all 13 of Barcelona’s Champions League fixtures this season and is averaging exactly 1.00 fouls per game in Europe’s elite club competition.

Raphinha, who claimed an assist and played the full 90 minutes of the 1st leg, drew 1 foul against Inter Milan last time out and we’re backing the Brazilian international to get fouled at least once on Tuesday night.

The former Leeds United star had a total carry distance of 131 yards and a progressive carry distance of 62 yards, only mis-controlling the ball and being dispossessed on 1 occasion, making him one of the Spanish club’s key attacking outlets and a target for plenty of tackles.

Marcus Thuram is expected to start again against Barcelona this week having played 81 minutes of the 1st leg in which he scored the game’s opening goal inside the opening minute.

The French international forward has scored 4 times in his 12 Champions League appearances so far this season, as well as providing an assist. The 27-year-old has managed to fire off 19 shots in the CL and is averaging 2.31 shots per 90 minutes.

Thuram has hit the target with 7 of his 19 efforts which makes for a shots on target ratio of 36.8% and he is averaging 0.85 shots on target per 90 minutes. We only need Thuram to hit the target at least once on Tuesday night just as he did in Barcelona last week.

Teenager Lamine Yamal scored Barcelona’s first goal in the 1st leg against Inter Milan last week in which he had a total of 6 shots, 2 of which landed on target.

Barcelona’s young superstar has taken a total of 44 shots in the Champions League this season and is averaging an impressive 4.07 shots per 90 minutes.

Yamal has seen 19 of his efforts hit the target which means his shots on target ratio currently stands at 43.2%. The 17-year-old, who has scored 5 times in the CL this season, is averaging 1.76 shots on target per 90 minutes and we have backed the Spanish international to have 1+ shots on target against Inter Milan on Tuesday night.
