Liverpool v Chelsea
Liverpool are never an easy proposition these days, particularly at Anfield, even for the likes of Chelsea.
And the Scousers also have a penchant for injury-time winners, which go down incredibly well (not) with yours truly.
Personally I fear the Torres / Gerrard combo,as they have the ability to create problems for any defence.
Said that, Chelse now are a much better outfit than the badly-assorted motley crew that made the trip up there earlier in the season, when Chelsea lost 2-0 without putting up a fight.
I'd bite their hand off if they offered me a 0-0 draw at Anfield - needless to say, a 1-1 would be good enough to make me do cartwheels in the street. At the Hanger Lane gyratory. At rush hour.
Prediction: heart says 1-1, head says 'shut up you fool'.
Barcelona v Bayern
what? Two non-English teams in the QF?? What's that all about?!?
Actually this could be a gem of a match. Both teams love to go forward, and they can turn on the style big time, however they are less than impeccable at the rear so this encounter could easily end up 3-3 or 4-4. Definitely looking forward to seeing how Bayern will cope with the combined threat of Messi and Henry. Although a 4-all draw would be an absolute treat, more realistically I think that Barcelona will get a precious home win as they may have just too much quality for Bayern.
Prediction: 3-1
