Juventus vs Barcelona Champions League final - 06-06-2015

Juventus vs Barcelona - Competition: UEFA Champions League Final Juventus team has topped Serie A for the fourth successive year, boasting the best attack and the strongest defence in the league. They were too dominant domestically and finished the league 17 points ahead Roma.  In Champions League, Juventus knocked out defending champions Real, winning 2-1 in Turin, then holding Los Blancos to a 1-1 draw at the Santiago Bernabeu. In the previous rounds, they easily eliminated BVB while the clash against Monaco was more levelled. Key defender Giorgio Chiellini, will miss the match and the reunion with Suarez after the Uruguayan bit him at last year's World Cup. Coach Massimiliano Allegri is already without Martin Caceres but might be able to call upon Andrea Barzagli. Fernando Llorente netted in the 2-2 draw with Verona at the weekend, but he is unlikely to feature from the start, with Alvaro Morata and Carlos Tevez leading the Juventus offensive. Barcelona have been t...

Madrid have done well this season at home in UEFA Champions League play, winning 4 of 5 Home matches so far. With a total of 2 home losses over 27 Home matches overall this season, RM have an intimidating home fortress, spearheaded by a massive fan support. Juventus team may have a 1 goal aggregate advantage, but Real Madrid did sneak in a key Away goal which could prov...

Bayern Munich vs FC Barcelona 12-05-2015 Champions League Semi-Final

    Bayern Munchen vs FC Barcelona Competition: UEFA Champions League Match date: 12 May 2015 Kick Off Time: 19:45 BST Stadium: Allianz-Arena, Munchen, Germany.   Bayern Munich football team fell to their 4th successive defeat on Saturday, losing just their 3rd Bundesliga home match in their last 45 at the Allianz Arena. Just a few weeks ago the Bavarians were staring at a possible treble this season, but a tense penalty-kick defeat in the DFB-Pokal to Dortmund saw them eliminated from the cup, and now faced with a 0:3 deficit against FC Barcelona, obtaining anything outside the Bundesliga title looks like a long shot at this stage. Of course, Bayern certainly have the ability to overturn this hole they have made for themselves, as just last round they came back from 1:3 down and smashed Porto at home, 6:1. Robert Lewandowski and his attacking cohorts can score goals in bunches, and an early goal would send ripples of delight through the stadium and possibl...

Juventus vs Real Madrid Champions League semifinal - 05-05-2015

Juventus vs Real Madrid Competition: Champions League, 2014/2015 − Semi-finals (first leg)   Match date: 05 May 2015 Kick Off Time: 18:45 GMT Venue: Juventus Stadium, Turin, Italy Juventus team will enjoy their 11th semi-final appearance in the competition here, though they have not made it to this stage since the 2002/2003 season. Coincidentally enough, that semi-final encounter came against Real Madrid when the hosts overturned a 1:2 1st-leg deficit to steal the match on aggregate with a 3:1 win in Turin. These clubs have a rich history in this tournament and have clashed a total of 16 times at various stages of the competition, and the hosting Old Lady have a home record over this span of 5 wins, 1 draw, and just 1 defeat in Italy. Therefore, we like their chances of avoiding defeat here, as despite the fact that they have come under attack by critics for playing a boring, unattractive brand of football, they still boast arguably the world’s best defence and have ...

Barcelona 2-0 PSG Highlights 21-04-2015 Champions League

Barcelona vs Paris Saint-Germain Competition: UEFA Champions League Match date: 21 April 2015 Venue: Camp Nou, Barcelona Barcelona 2-0 Paris Saint Germain (Quarter Finals) 14' Neymar 1-0 // 34' Neymar 2-0 Neymar’s double seals Barcelona’s passage into the last four as FC Barcelona beat Paris Saint-Germain 5-1 on aggregate in the quarterfinals.  Barcelona vs Paris Saint-Germain match ended with 2-0 scoreline in UEFA Champions League 2015.

Bayern Munich vs FC Porto Champions League - 21-04-2015

Bayern Munich vs FC Porto Competition: UEFA Champions League - Quarter-finals (second leg)   Match date: 21 April 2015 Kick Off Time: 19:45 BST Venue: Allianz Arena (München, Germany)  Bayern Munich dissappointed in the first leg, where they ended up losing 3:1 making it extremely hard to advance in the UCL. After only a couple of minutes Xabi Alonso and Dante had made crucial mistakes leading to two goals for Porto. There will be no room for that kind of mistakes in the second leg, where the Bayern players are forced forward, as they need to score at least two goals. It is obvious that Pep Guardiola is missing some crucial players, but he can still line up with a world class squad. It is also expected that Ribery and Schweinsteiger will be in the squad, and they may get a few minutes if it is needed. Bayern rested some players on the weekend, where they beat Hoffenheim with 2:0. That gives them a good preview for the game this Tuesday in Allianz Arena, where ...

Paris Saint-Germain vs Barcelona Champions League - April 15, 2015

Paris Saint-Germain vs FC Barcelona - Competition: UEFA Champions League   PSG team will be eager to get back to their UCL campaign after their 3:3 victory on aggregate over Chelsea last round. Thiago Silva, the Parisians’ captain and savior in the Round of 16, undoubtedly has the talent and physicality of one of the best centre-backs in all the world, but with David Luiz injured and Verratti suspended in the midfield, Silva will need to put in a top-drawer performance this time out if Paris Saint-Germain hope to travel to Barcelona with a semblance of hope. However, the hosts gave absolutely everything to defeat Chelsea last round, including the eligibility of the suspended duo of Ibrahimovic and Marco Verratti. While they did manage to conquer Barcelona here in the group stages, the visitors have vastly improved since then while the Parisians have found elimination from this stage of the cup in back-to-back seasons. Furthermore, they have only reached the semifinal...

Juventus vs AS Monaco Champions League 14-04-2015

Juventus vs AS Monaco Competition: UEFA Champions League Match date: Tuesday, 14 April 2015 Kick Off Time: 19:45 BST Venue: Juventus Arena, Torino, Italy Juventus team are one of the best clubs worldwide and it shows in their dominance of the Italian Serie A. Having only lost 2 Home matches all season, Juve certainly know how to win, and they have been doing so for a few years now. Seeking their 1st ever Treble(league win, coppa italia win, Champions League win), Juventus are surely coming out to blow Monaco’s hopes up in this leg 1 home matchup. The absence of Paul Pogba and possibly Andrea Pirlo could press Juventus to play more defensive. But, with 3 straight home victories, expect them to still manage a shutout here considering they have accumulated a fine 11 Clean Sheets over 22 Home contests overall. With 3 wins out of 4 unbeaten home matches in UCL competition this season, look for goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon to have his way once again as they push AS Monaco away from any ...
