The champions League part II

A beautiful game today between the two last winners of the Champions League. Don't miss it. Of course also a difficult game to bet on, but still I'm confident that I can predict the winner! To base my prediction I will do for once an extensive post. Don't get bored cause there is some really nice info in this post, which may change your own prediction!

Watch the game of PSV last night against Arsenal. I don't think that PSV stole the victory. Arsenal was nowhere is the second half. PSV had more chances on 2-0 then Arsenal on 1-1. Also a pity that AC Milan was not capable of scoring, while they should have.

Barcelona - Liverpool (Lost(1-2))
* Barcelona arrived at this stage after taking second place in Group A behind Chelsea, while secured their last-16 place on match day 4, as group C winners, already.
* Barcelona already faced an English team at home 22 times. They won 13 times, drawing 8 and just lost ONE. But the nice part is that this loss was against Liverpool in the 1975/76 UEFA cup semi-finals. After which Liverpool won the Uefa Cup.
* The previous encounter was during the group stages of the CL in 2001/02. When it was a scoreless draw at Nou camp and a 3-1 victory for the Reds at Anfield.
* Benitez has never lost against Barcelona, but I feel that tonight will be the first time.
* In the ten previous visits of Liverpool to Spain they won 5 times and just lost on 2 occasions.
* Within the group stage Barcelona conceded only four goals, while scoring 12.
* Liverpool conceded 5 goals and scored 11 and only lost 3-2 in Galatasaray.
* Sunday evening Barca lost 2-1 at Valencia, who will face Inter today!
* Liverpool lost their last away game against Newcastle United with 2-1.
* Eto'o will not play. The official statement is that he lacks match rhythm. While probably the cause is the fight with Rijkaard and Ronaldino.

Inter - Valencia (Lost(2-2))
Just trust me on this one. i don't see Valencia winning or drawing at Inter. Inter hasn't lost a competition home game this season but lost their first home game in this CL campaign against Bayern (0-2). After this game they only concede 3 other goals in the remaining 5 matches.
