Getting towards the business ends of both these competitions this week. Todays matches are Bayern (who just won 9-1 in the league) against Juve. And Barca vs PSG. I've tipped Bayern to win the whole thing from the start although I was expecting it to be a united bayern final. What's everyone else's predictions?
As for who I think will win it, I've been constantly tipping Borussia Dortmund and am not changing my mind.
PSG going into their game against Barca starting Ibrahimovic, Lavezzi, Moura, Pastore and Beckham... That is almost suicidally attacking. Personally I feel sorry for Matuidi, he will be getting through a lot of work!
PSG will generate all the pre-match headlines with the Beckham fun-fare, but Barca will take all the headlines tomorrow.
A huge gamble by Ancelotti to start Beckham. If it comes off he will be hailed as a genius. If it fails, well, Mourinho to PSG could become a bigger possibility.
Funny how things have turned out with Beckham starting. No other English or UK player is in the competition now for any team. Last man standing.
PSG on top so far. Not really interested in possession stats. Barcelona's possession is in non-threatening areas so far
Very true. Barca are getting into it now though, and the PSG centre backs are being worked. Thiago Silva has been fantastic though.
I'm not sure I'd try to pull rank on Ibrahimovic though. It's refreshing to see a side go at Barca for once and make a game of it, although I suppose this isn't the Barca of 2-3 years ago.
Been quite a bright opening, PSG have lots of stars but don't always play as a team, however they are up for it tonight and have rattled Barcelona at times.
He's probably the main reason why PSG are more likely than AC Milan to be able to defend a lead at the Nou Camp, should they get one tonight. Fantastic defender.
