Barcelona are 4/7 to beat Inter in the first leg of their Champions League Semi Final at the Nou Camp.

I’ve been impressed with Inter this season and would have given them a chance against Barcelona across 2 legs, but their recent wobble (3 consecutive defeats without scoring) worries me.

Maybe they have just had their eyes on this clash and they have been very tight defensively in Serie A away matches (conceded just 14 in 17 away games), but this is a big step up from anything they face domestically.

4/7 is normally a bit short for me to get involved, but I am going to break my rules tonight.

Player to be Carded :

Nicolo Barella (11/4), Denzil Dumfries (3/1), Alessandro Bastoni (7/2), Raphinha (5/1)

SUMMARY:

£75 Staked and could do with a profitable evening. Good luck with your bets!

….and that ladies and gentlemen is why I do not like backing short priced favourites.

Inter Milan deservedly claimed a 3-3 draw with some comedy defending by Barcelona.

This is the first time we have drawn a blank in a game with the tips. Only 9 Corners (at least one obvious corner not given). I thought Raphinha had scored, but it was clearly an own goal and no joy on the yellow cards.

I am on a bad run right now, but there will be some good chances to put things right tomorrow night.
