Match of the year. Every Europe soccer fan was probably waiting for this. The grand final of UEFA Champions League. At Moscow's Luzhniki Stadium it will be all-English final. Champions of the Premier League will match they greatest opponents - Chelsea London. It is a surely no-bet match, both teams are playing at galactic level, but for such event it would be a sin for a tipster not try to predict some result in this match.

I start from few words about last match in Premier League of these two teams. Few weeks ago Chelsea had won 2:1 against Manchester United, but still they lost the war for championship. At Stamford Bridge the Red Devils were playing with 4-5-1 formation. It wasn't bad, because even after they lost a goal team was able to organize and was very close from drawing 2-2, but Sevchenko kicked out the ball from scoring line. Chelsea, as I remember was playing with simple 4-4-2 formation and it was also good in fact that they won this game. But we have to notice that both teams were playing without few key players and it wasn't an neutral pitch.

Now let's move to defence of both teams. In my opinion Van Der Saar is a good goalkeeper, but in compression with Petr Cech he is a little bit worse. Few years ago I would say maybe different but Manchester goalkeeper his best years pasted away, in spite of Cech who is at optimal age for goalkeeper. Defence line of both teams are excellent - Ferdinand for ManU and Terry for Chelsea they are players that keep leadership under defence of their teams. Still in my opinion Chelsea defence looks better, and only if Ferguson will put Hargreaves as defensive winger it could change for Manchester side.

Midfielder's at first view looks better for Chelsea too. Ballack in last weeks just shine with his form and Frank Lampard is a great player that is always there were he is need to be. Carrick and Scholes are awesome too, but only the second one in my opinion can match something here with a flash of his genius like we saw against Barcelona. But after such 'show' I think that Chelsea defence won't let Paul to hit the ball from distance. That was the centre field but wingers are all on ManU side. Ronaldo and Nani are two young and extremely talented players. But still I think that Ronaldo will screw this match. Against Barcelona he was covered all time and wasn't able to do anything and also I think he is too self-confidence - that will fail him!

Offence line - Chelsea probably will use Drogba and Anelka, perfect combination of experience and talent and form. Drogba already scored 6 goals in Champions League and he is always dangerous player for every defence. Anelka won CL 8 years ago with Real Madrid and now we can see that for few weeks he is playing again like in the past, I think his experience will be very useful. Manchester posses Rooney, that in my opinion isn't in great form and play with too much strenght and not much technique. But Carlos Tevez is different, this guy knows what to do when he gets the right ball into penalty area. I think offence line for both teams are equal.

As we know Manchester twice was in CL final and won both matches in equal matches, once after extra time, second it was some kind of 'hand of the God'. Chelsea for the very first time in such game but they posses enough players that knows well what does it means - CL FINAL.

Coaches knows each other very well, so in my opinion there's no way of some extra tactics that will change the view of whole match. I expect very calm game, no one will want to make a mistake tonight and the key for this match is to damage Red Devils wingers. If Cristiano and Nani will be out of game I think Chelsea will closer thatn ever from the trophy. Still I would not take Chelsea as a winner in regular time. 1:1 after 90 minutes of wonderful soccer. Good Luck!
