World Football, EPL, Manchester United, UEFA Champions League, Preview/Prediction

Well well it’s the game everybody has been waiting for, the battle of europe some called it between Manchester United And Barcelona.

Looking at the stats of their Champions league campaign the teams looks exactly alike they both haven’t lost a game in the campaign, they both won 8 and drawn 2. They scored the same amout of goals and conceed the same amout too.

Tomorrow’s game brings also another battle a more personal matter, the battle between Ronaldo and Messi, two great players who have been influential for their teams.

United go into the game having a fresh squad, no injury bill. Wayne Rooney who was removed in the 2nd half after a hip injury will be available for the game, so will Van Der Sar, Anderson and Owen Hargreaves.

Barcelona on the other hand will be without Ronaldinho ( injury) and Puyol(suspension) and probably Thierry Henry with a virus.

United go into the game 1st in the premiere league 3pts clear of Chelsea and with a game in stamford bridge on Saturday which could decide the title. Barcelone have lost any hope of winning the Spanish liga trailing the leaders Real Madrid by several points.

The Game Is going to be a very though game for both sides and with a return leg at old trafford, united might seem to have an edge

So Who cares to make a prediction ?
