Inter Milan and Barcelona will lock horns at the San Siro on Tuesday (October 4) in a game that could hugely impact Group C qualification.
Simone Inzaghi's team are struggling, with Marcelo Brozovic's injury adding to their woes. They have endured four defeats in six games across competitions, most recently suffering a 2-1 home defeat against AS Roma.
Meanwhile, Xavi's Barcelona are in a splendid form, with their 2-0 defeat against Bayern Munich their only poor result in a while. Robert Lewandowski has had no problems in adjusting to life at the club. The Blaugrana enter this fixture as a well-oiled machine despite injuries to some key defensive cogs.

Inter Milan vs Barcelona Dream11 Fantasy Suggestions
Barcelona should have a decent outing at the San Siro, with Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha, Lautaro Martinez, and Alejandro Balde the players common to both teams.
I've gone with different defenders apart from Balde in the two suggested teams, with Federico Dimarco an intriguing differential. In midfield, I've gone with Pedri and Gavi in different teams, with Hakan Calhanoglu being another interesting pick.
Edin Dzeko could be a solid option if he starts over Joaquin Correa. Ousmane Dembele has been excellent so far and will look to combine with Robert Lewandowski. Lewandowski is easily the best captaincy option in this game. Inter Milan's Lautaro Martinez is a decent alternative.
