Switching sides for this leg and taking the Bavarians. Bayern are a good side and will salvage some pride for their club. Last week they ran into a formidable Barca team with key injuries while not in their best form to start. This week three key defenders are set to return with Lucio, Lahm and Van Buyten. They are coming off a morale boosting 4-0 win at home in the league on the weekend. Barcelona are saying the right things but its only natural for some of the players to let down a little for this one.

Over may not be a bad play again. Both coaches love attacking football and even with a 4-0 lead I don't see Barcelona changing their tactics. They know one goal will more or less seal the deal.


Bayern 3-2

Interesting play. I assume you are playing the game at pk -101 or somewhere close to that. I think I will play the over again and stay away from the side.

What is your opinion on the Liverpool at Chelsea match?? The total at Oly opened with the over at 2.0, -135 and they immediately moved it to 2.5, +115. Someone bet the over early on that one.

About two thirds on pk and the other third on the +180ish outright. I do like the over (smaller though) too but would like to wait and see if Messi plays. I think its probably better to wait for the lineups. o/u line will probably only change if he doesn't play.

As of this second I have no opinion on Chelsea/Liverpool.

Agree with you on Bayern this time around. The Germans know what they have to do and that's score goals, which they're capable of doing. Barca's defense tends to turn into swiss cheese on the road, plus marquez is suspended for this leg. The problem is if Barca finds the net once, Bayern is done. Risky game but I think Bayern wins 2 or 3-1.

Chelsea's D will be extra dodgy without Terry, who's suspended. I think taking El Nino at a PK is well worth it. GL

Barcelona really surprising me here with Messi and Iniesta both starting. hmm...I'm sticking with my bets but now will bet on goals. O3 and some higher exotics. Confident now this game will have several goals.

Kind of think Barcelona wants to get an early goal (Bayern would need) and really put this match out of reach and maybe start pulling guys the second half.

Kind of curious if the likely scenario does happen with Chelsea and Barcelona meeting any thoughts what the odds would be for advancement to finals. Thanks.

Based on the odds I see already its shaping up to be in the Barca -150 range.

can go both ways..a boring match, when barca breaking the pace, but with the starters!!! i dont know how it turns out. the other way, an open match, bayern going all in, with nothing to lose, and barca scoring a couple with munchen winning. staying away, and playing the chelsea under, they know how to break the pace, a boring game 0-0, or 1-0. gl.

a parlay bayern +0.5 and chelsea under 3 looks nice btw

Go to uefa.com

No GERRARD for LIVERPOOL. Uh Oh!!

Another odd lineup for Liverpool. Three defensive midfielders in a game you need at least three goals? Totally bizarre. But if Rafa wants to get wierd so will I. Took 17-1 for Lucas to score in his different role.

they know its not realistic to go through, especially without their key guy. so they'll focus on the EPL, and leave the CL to the other contenders. think its going to be a boring/low-scoring game.
