The charges will claim that the chipmaker illicitly induced European retailers not to sell computers that use AMD chips, reports the paper.
"We are continuing to cooperate and really don't know what the commission will do," Intel spokesman Chuck Mulloytold the Journal. "We believe we operate within the law."
EU Antitrust Commissioner spokesman Neelie Kroes said the Intel probe is "ongoing".
Intel was charged for illegal practices in its battle with AMD last year, when the European Commission charged the company with selling chips below cost and offering huge rebates to customers.
The impending charges from EU regulators would add to Intel's litigation worries, as the company admitted last month that it is facing a formal investigation by the US Federal Trade Commission.
The New York state attorney general is currently conducting a formal probe into Intel's practices to ascertain if it has broken the state's antitrust laws. The Korean Fair Trade Commission has also fined Intel £12.8 million for abusing its market dominant position last month, a decision that Intel said it'd almost certainly appeal.
