Re: Champions League picks and previews 2010-11

- Great preview to the Champions League quarter finals -

Chelsea may have edge in Champions League battle

Chelsea V Manchester United is the stand out tie of the quarter finals, the tightest of the quartet to accurately predict.

The winner will face Inter Milan or Schalke in a game the Italians will go into as favourites. La Liga giants Real Madrid and Barcelona are set to face each other in the semi finals if they get past Tottenham and Shakhtar Donetsk respectively. It is a mouth watering draw, and some wonderful games lie ahead in the coming weeks.

Re: Champions League picks and previews 2010-11

Champions League final 28 May

- Saturday -

Barcelona v Manchester United

Venue: Wembley Stadium, London
Date: Saturday, 28 May
Kick-off: 1945 BST
Referee: Viktor Kassai

Barcelona's last six games:
30/04/11     PRD     Real Sociedad     2 - 1     Barcelona
03/05/11     UCL     Barcelona     1 - 1     Real Madrid
08/05/11     PRD     Barcelona     2 - 0     Espanyol
11/05/11     PRD     Levante     1 - 1     Barcelona
15/05/11     PRD     Barcelona     0 - 0     Deportivo La C…
21/05/11     PRD     Málaga     1 - 3     Barcelona

Manchester United's last six games:
26/04/11     UCL     Schalke 04     0 - 2     Manchester United
01/05/11     PRL     Arsenal     1 - 0     Manchester United
04/05/11     UCL     Manchester United     4 - 1     Schalke 04
08/05/11     PRL     Manchester United     2 - 1     Chelsea
14/05/11     PRL     Blackburn Rovers     1 - 1     Manchester United
22/05/11     PRL     Manchester United     4 - 2     Blackpool

Head 2 Head:
27/05/09     UCL     Barcelona     2 - 0     Manchester United
29/04/08     UCL     Manchester United     1 - 0     Barcelona
23/04/08     UCL     Barcelona     0 - 0     Manchester United

There have been very few goals actually when these two have met in recent games and I believe that few goals is a good pick in this one as well. United will be looking to stop the likes of Lionel Messi and will be looking to keep clean sheets for as long as possible. Barcelona are pritty strong at the back with former United defender Gerard Pique a key player. The battle is likely to be on the midfield, but United have a VERY strong defence with Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic in the center.

Pick: Less than 2.5 goals.
