Inter are missing their main defender against Barcelona

Benjamin Pavard

Inter will be without one of the team's main defenders in the match against Barcelona.

Inter will travel to Barça on Wednesday at 21:00 PM in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final. 

Italian media reported on Monday that French defender Benjamin Pavard will be a significant absence for Simone Inzaghi's team against the Catalan giants.

Pavard was injured on Sunday in Inter's 1-0 defeat by Roma.

Pavard was forced to be substituted in the 15th minute. It is learned that the Frenchman injured his ankle.

Meanwhile, striker Marcus Thuram is doubtful for the match against Barça.

Thuram has missed the Nerazzurri's last three matches due to a muscle injury.
