Pretty much a regular
Let me start by saying that if you happen to have a ticket for tomorrow's game and for some wicked reason, you don't want it, you can come here in Athens and grab 3,000 Euros easily.
About the game. I've been a Liverpool fan for more than 25yrs now, so I want Reds to win the big trophy for the 6th time in their gloried history.
But it seems that everyone and their mothers outside UK like Milan, so the line keeps dropping. I even saw it at 1.95 in one book. Fine with me.
Let everyone pound the Italians, while I'm playing wait and see.
But, why the whole world seems to have fallen in love with Milan all the sudden? Imo, all this support comes from only one game. The second leg against ManU, when the Italians were scary good. What about the previous rounds. I remember many people bashing Milan for being nearly kicked off by Celtic, and then getting a scare by the worst Bayern Munich of recent years in the quarterfinals.
On the contrary, Liverpool have been solid in Champions League play all season. It seems that Benitez prepares the squad better for the European competition, probably because he himself is more familiar with the style of the game. Benitez will never ever field his team as Sir Alex did against AC in Milan. And he will not do that tomorrow, either. Liverpool will try to avoid allowing a goal first and then see if they can score. If they score first, I do not see how they will lose the game.
Individually, the only player Milan has who could possibly intimidate Liverpool is Kaka. The Brazilian is the real deal, imo the best player in the world today. But i think Benitez has a weapon for him. It's Javier Mascherano. The Argentinian had a terrific performance in the 2nd leg against Chelsea and he seems to be in the right form at the right time.
Liverpool's midfield will be the key for the game. If they can hold their own against Gattuso, Seedorf, Pirlo and Ambrosini, I think Liverpool can score at least once and win. And I have a feeling that they will.
At the moment I have Liverpool pk, +0.5 @ 1.975 (Bet365). Since the line is likely to go in my favor i will wait.
My total lean is Over 2 @ 1.85, but I have not decided yet. I do not see a replay of Istanbul's 3-3, but the Under 2.5 price is just not worth it.
I'm also looking at the goalscorer props. Gerrard at 4.33 and Kaka at 3.25 look very interesting.
Almost twenty-four hours till game time!:wacka wacka:
