Champions League Predictions

Barcelona v Atl Madrid

The top two in Spain clash in the Champions League this week. The two have drawn on their last 3 meetings in all competition. Madrid have not won at the Camp Nou since 2006, when Torres scored twice. They now Diego Costa whose in fine form, a slight injury doubt for tonight's game but if he does play he gives them a boost. Of course Barcelona have Messi. It will be a battle of the midfield, who can control that will have the advantage.

Prediction - Barcelona 1-1 Atl Madrid

Manchester United v Bayern Munich 

In what should be a walk in the park on paper Munich haven't lost a competitive game since December 2013, you can't see them losing tonight unless United pull off what will only be described as a miracle. It's the midfield where the problem is, any Munich player would get in the United midfield, probably the ones on their bench to. Munich are to powerful in all areas for United, and if you look at the sides that have gone to Old Trafford this year and won, Munich are better then them all.

Prediction - Manchester Utd 1-4 Munich

PSG v Chelsea 

The French money bags face a solid Chelsea side, experience says Chelsea will get through, history says Chelsea but the one man who is the key for the PSG Zlatan Ibrahimovic. He said in his book Jose was a manager he would die for, he may be the man to kill off Chelsea's Champions League dream.

Prediction - PSG 2-1 Chelsea 

Real Madrid v B Dortmund 

These two heavy-weights meet up again, last time Dortmund got through, but with the Madrid fans have become restless after slipping away in the race for La Liga. The focus now is the hunt for number the magic number 10 of European Cup success.

Prediction - Real Madrid 3-2 B Dortmund

Where has as it all gone wrong for Chelsea?

After Chelsea’s defeat in Germany to Bayer Leverkusen manager Andre Villas-Boas is a man under serious pressure no matter what he thinks. As Chelsea sank to their third defeat from their last five games I look into where has it gone wrong? Well Chelsea was on a run of six unbeaten going in to their game at Loftus Road towards the end of October. A game where Chelsea thought they would walk all over their London rivals. This didn’t happen that day in West London Chelsea lost the game and lost the plot. The repercussions of that match have still left an effect. QPR won 1-0, but the game will also be remembered for John Terry’s racist slur, Chelsea’s ill-disciplined team (7 yellows and 2 reds). Plus AVB was fined £12,000 after the game for comments made about the referee. Since that match Chelsea have only beaten Blackburn Rovers & Everton on penalties. Their defence looks weak, Terry is getting exposed and David Luiz is not the best partner. Centre of midfield is a problem, Lampard ...

After this weekend’s events what have we learnt in the Premier League. Firstly its Man City’s title to lose, 11 wins and 1 draw in the league at this point they look unstoppable. Man United have a problem in centre midfield. Rooney is filling a gap there and Fergie knows he has a problem. There’s a lack of creative talent in the centre of the park, missing out on Nasri & Sneijder is showing plus the loss of Scholes showed how good he really was. Young could move into the centre where he did play for Aston Villa which could be an option. Tottenham look to be firing on all cylinders now, pace down both wings and they have the creative spark with Modric and Van Der Vaart. Now with Scott Parker doing the dirty work they look in good condition for top 4. Newcastle United’s first test against City was always going to be hard after an easy start to the season, but they do look solid at the back and have been exciting to watch. Chelsea look to have forgotten how to defend, lost th...

English sides in Champions League..

A look at the English sides in Champions League action this week. Real Madrid v Liverpool  Out of form Liverpool head to Madrid which was always going to be the toughest game of the group. They were given a footballing master class at Anfield by the current European Champions as they won 3-0. Madrid are on a 11 game winning streak in all competitions and I only see that continuing. Liverpool are struggling, Mario Balotelli hasn't lived up to the hype, while Gerrard is struggling this season and it looks like he will be rested, or in other words 'dropped'. There is a clear over reliance on Raheem Sterling, if you keep him quite you keep Liverpool quite. They still can't defend, which cost them their first ever Premier League title. I see Real Madrid winning this 4-0 with Ronaldo scoring the first. Arsenal v Anderlecht  Arsenal could practically seal their place in the knock-out stages of the Champions League with a win here. The Gooners snatched victory against Anderlech...
