Tough game going to be hard to break down Utd's defense with Rio & Vidic but i'm confident as i feel Barca are the better team, i'll go with a 1-0 to Barca & hope for a great game!

[Corb]

So, there we go.

[silky_soccer]

Good Luck! Lets hope for a good game.

[FCBarca]

Most worthy adversary to Barca for a CL Final, IMO...United have looked quite good in the last month or so, IMO

[Seamus]

Gonna be a great match, lets hope theres nothing like the Clasico's incidents'

And now is when tones of new ManU users will breed like mushrooms.

I am confident that we will prevail. United is strong, probobly the strongest Barca will face, but the boys have prooven they are the best and expect them to show it once again at the 28th.
Visca Barca!!!

Fungus and Man Utd. fans is an apt comparison.

[ViscaBarca914]

I actually think Madrid was the strongest we will have faced this season. Not taking anything away from Man U but I think we got this. Either way this is going to be a great game of footy and im looking forward to it.

Agree but you never know. We can be caught on a bad day and it's only a one match draw so in reality the best team doesn't necessarily win all the time (example: Copa Del Rey).

[diegomessi]

for me it is 50/50

[ViscaBarca914]

Yeah this being a winner takes all match makes it harder. Especially with SAF being the opposing coach. But I have supreme faith in Pep and the boys. I really see them going all out for once. I can't wait to see Messi in this final...I see him doing some big things.

[Blaugrana dude]

We should wrap the league up quickly, so Pep can rest players for the final. Seeing how tight the PL title race is, Utd will probably have to field in strong sides until the very last day of the season. In any case its 60/40 for me in Barca's favor.
