Superb tipping from Tom here, the match duly went to penalties, with Utd prevailing, to bring us a tidy profit.

Two Premier League representatives makes this year’s Champions League final all the more anticipated and there can be no argument about the merits of those involved. Manchester United, still unbeaten in the competition, and Chelsea have been the two standout sides in the 2007/08 edition of Europe’s premier club tournament and either will be worthy champions.

While United seek a momentous double, following their well deserved Premier League triumph, Chelsea have prioritised this competition over recent seasons and will de desperate not to end the campaign empty handed.

Avram Grant, against all odds, has been seen by many to have turned around the fortunes of the London club and while the Israeli should certainly take some credit for the Blues strong finish to the season it is ultimately the players that warrant the majority of the plaudits.
