Again we are faced with a great match in the ch. league semi-finals.These matches have an unique aspect and any team that reaches this stage of the competition has something special.Manchester have showed us, what they are capable of, when they won against Roma.But that was a match in which almost everything seemed to go their way.

On the other side AC Milan, seemed to be have no chance of qualif. for this round after the first match against Bayern.But in the end, they went to Germany and pulled it off.By now Milan is a constant presence in the final stages of the uefa Ch. League.This is due to the fact that Milan has players that have a lot of experience.But will that be enough this time?Will that be enough in front of a team like Manchester?A team that has played great this season.They are so close and a lack of concentration at this time could be a big mistake.And a great example is the match with Boro from this weekend.A 1-1 result that could have brought Chelsea only 1 pct behind.

For this match i sense a Man. U. victory.Just a spark from C. Ronaldo's side can turn the result of the match in United's favor.Ferguson declared the fact that he has no fear for the first leg match againt Milan."I don't have any fears about it, I see the mood in the camp and it pleases me."

In today's match Gilardino will be back for Milan.He will be the main problem for the Manchester defence, former from Gabriel Heinze, Wes Brown, John O'Shea and midfielder Darren Fletcher.Carlo Ancelotti believes that the problems that Manchester has encountered in the defensive area are going to play an important role in this first leg.

The only disadvantage for Manchester is the fact they are missing players like Rio Ferninard or Gary Neville, Ji-Sung Park.In the last matches Ferhuson was forced to play with Fletcher and Richardson in the back.But today Richardson will also be out due to a hamstring injury suffered in the match with Boro. But i'm sure that the rest of the players will be able to play as a strong unit and manage to obtaine a positive result.
