There are two teams starting this week with a real chance of winning a prestigious double: the local league title and the Champions League. Manchester United and Chelsea travel to Barcelona and Liverpool respectively for the 1st legs of the Champions League Semi Finals, just a few days before their title clash at Stamford Bridge. What a week!
On the other hand, Liverpool want a third European Cup final appearance in four years. To be honest, they usually make it when they come as underdogs, but this time it's not sure who the underdog is, as they face troubled Chelsea.
In Barcelona, the local derby last weekend ended with a draw that ended Barcelona's dreams of winning the league title. Barcelona had a troublesome season, with a lot of noise surrounding both Ronaldinho and Rijkaard, while Leo Messi spent half the season injured. Despite all this, Barcelona is still one of the best teams in the world this talented team has only one thing to fight for: The Champions League title.
BetUknow community thinks that Liverpool will beat Chelsea by one goal, which will give them a minor advantage for the second leg. At the second match the opinions are split: 42% of the community believes that Manchester United will win at Camp Nou. This contradicts the bookies that see Barcelona as favorites with, giving them nice odds of 3/2. If that's not enough Barcelona top predictors put their faith in Barcelona, while the United’s top predictors go with the draw. This is a match where the bookies will be happy with any result.
Both Manchester United and Chelsea face a huge week that can make this season a one to remember. According to the community only the 2nd legs will decide how these teams will define this season.
