Titanic Clash Awaits in Moscow

There's a titanic clash in the Champions' League Final in Moscow come May 21st, where red half of Manchester United will take on the Blues' Chelsea for a 3rd time, which also the most important of all this season! After defeating Barcelona in another SF yesterday, we know this year's finals will be play between two EPL team. This is also the first ever all English Finals for a European Cup or Champions' League.

It is not difficult to judge why this final will be an epic show because EPL teams know each others well, and their style of play is open, attacking and at a very fast pace. I don't believe either team will be going to Moscow to start with a game plan of 10 man defence and waiting for opportunity to counter attacking! Probably this will be used by teams from Italy, Spain or Germany, but I think this will not happen to English team.

As for who has bigger chance of winning the coveted trophy, my bet would be for Man Utd. They have been there and done it before, which is a huge advantage to them. Experience will tell in this match, and Chelsea's players will be equally fighting hard for the trophy, but they will be just that step too far for them because certain player will feel the pressure comes May 21st.

Whether my prediction is correct remain to be seen, but one for sure is that we will be watching one of the most exciting finals ever in Champions' League history.
