CHELSEA-BARCELONA


These two know each other very well and there is not a lot of love lost between them.

They have met in each of the last two seasons in the Champions League, the four games have been very hard fought and produced 14 goals.

Chelsea's goalkeeping problems have been well documented and with Makelele and ballack joing Lampard and Essien in a very narrow looking midfield, Jose Mourinho will be looking to protect his 3rd choice keeper.

However, with so much attacking talent on show, Ronaldinho is finally showing signs of returning to his best and Drogba is in the form of his life, it is hard not to see a couple of goals at the very least.

If pushed for a straight selection, I would go for the score draw, but feel more confident about the "over" 2 goals option. the previous encounters all contained 2 or more and it would surprise me if we did not see something similar tonight.

4 points over 2 goals Chelsea-Barcelona 1.85 asian line.

I will be back with my thoughts and one more bet on the remaining Champions League fixtures at 17.30 cet.

Good Luck.
