Barcelona last season remained without trophies, which in itself is a failure for such an ambitious team. The Catalans could not succeed in the Primera, where they took only second place with a gap of ten points from the winner of the tournament, performed poorly in the Spanish Cup and the Super Cup, and on the international stage, they dropped out too early. All this led to the resignation of Xavi, and the vacant post was taken by Hansi Flick. Gradually, the German mentor is settling in at the new place of work, but he has problems with the staff. Joao Cancelo, Joao Felix, Marcos Alonso, Sergi Roberto left the Spanish club in the summer, and there are no new recruits to replace them, so they have to use youngsters in control matches, so they have to use youngsters.

Last season was pretty good for Milan. It was impossible to compete in Serie A with Inter for the title, but among the other participants of the tournament, the Red-Blacks showed themselves best, and therefore they became vice-champions of Italy. In addition, they reached the quarter-finals of the Europa League, which can also be considered an achievement. However, all this did not save Stefano Pioli from leaving the club. The new head coach is Paulo Fonseca, who is trying to bring his vision of football to the Italian team.

Although last season was a disappointing one for Barcelona, the Catalans picked up a good run at the end of the season and went on a 4-match winning streak, and extended it during the summer friendlies by winning three more times in a row. Now they are the favourites for the clash, being in top form. Milan can not boast similar statistics, moreover, the Red-Black even in the course of the pre-season tour continues personnel renewal: players leave, come, there is no stability in the squad. All this makes Hansi Flick's side favourites to win the game.
