Manchester United vs Arsenal: UCL Semi-final

Tonight United and Arsenal do battle at the Emirates for a place in the final of the UEFA Champions League. United are looking to defend the title they won last year after a heart-breaking penalty shootout in Moscow, while Arsenal are looking to win this competition for the first time. United will have a slender lead of 1-0 (thanks to Almunia....he saved the day for the Gunners) to protect.

What makes this game fun for the neutrals is the fact that these are two good footballing sides who really look to play football. Both are going to go for it...Arsenal a little more as they have to score. This will definitely allow United to attack on the counter. Hence, we can expect an open game.

Key players:

United: Wayne Rooney

Arsenal: Fabregas

Looking forward to a superb match. My prediction 2-0 to Arsenal and 2-1 on aggregate.

Glory Glory Manchester United!!!
