Odds and Betting Barcelona v Man Utd

Odds and Betting for Barcelona v Man Utd 1st Leg Semi Final promises to be very busy.

Barcelona striker Samuel Eto, has aired the view that United are a step up for the Spanish giants and has said he wants to leave the club. Moreover, under fire Coach Frank Rijkaard, seems to be on a ‘win the trophy or bust’ remit from the Barcelona Boardroom and fans alike. Failure against United will almost certainly see him leave the club.

All this must be music to Sir Alex Ferguson’s ears, who will be insisting his team go all out to secure at least one vital away goal.

United will put to the back of their minds their poor record against Spanish Clubs in Europe. They have only won twice in sixteen visits to Spain. Even more disturbing is their Tournament semi final record. They have won only twice in nine semi finals while Barcelona have won four of their eight.

However United have Ronaldo! and Barcelona are without star Brazilian Ronaldinho, who is out for the remainder of the season. Could this be the difference between the two sides?

Neither side has been beaten in Europe this season. This is very interesting, and although both sides will want a victory here, a draw looks like a very good bet. A draw will certainly suit United as they have a distinct advantage of playing the 2nd leg at Old Trafford.

Odds for a 0-0 draw are 5/1, while a 1-1 draw is around 13/2

The match is live on Sky Sports Two at 2045 on Wednesday Night
