Barcelona vs Inter Milan
Uefa Champions League 2018/19
Venue: Camp Nou
Date: Wednesday, 24 October
Kick-off time: 8pm
Barcelona must do without Lionel Messi as the Spanish champions host Inter Milan in the Champions League.
Barca talisman Messi fractured his right arm in the weekend's 4-2 win over Sevilla - an injury which keeps him out of both Wednesday night's clash against Inter and Sunday's El Clasico with Real Madrid.
The good news for Barca fans is that Ernesto Valverde's men are sitting pretty at the top of Group B on six points, and should be in a strong position to qualify for the knockout stages as long as they avoid a home defeat to Inter.
