Manchester United vs. AC Milan Preview
8th March, 2010
Manchester United is hot favourites to win the second league of their Champions League bout against AC Milan on Wednesday. David Beckham’s home coming match already sees Man U with a 3-2 lead from the away leg and Manchester, either with or without the services of Wayne Rooney, should beat AC Milan as the side struggled in the first leg.
Paddy Power price Manchester United at 4/6 to win the match with Milan in at 9/2, the draw is 5/2. The online bookmaker also makes the Red Devils, 1/20 to qualify for the last 8 with Milan quoted at 15/2.
A lot will be made of David Beckham’s return to Old Trafford adding pressure, however even he knows with Manchester United recent good form he’s got a lot to prove. Even still, it should be remembered that last time David Beckham played in the Champions league at Old Trafford he scored twice!
David Beckham is priced at 18/1 to score the opening goal and 13/2 to score during the match.
It seems like Dimitar Berbatov will be the man that punters look towards to be the main goal scorer of the match with Wayne Rooney being an unlikely starter and Michael Owen out for the rest of the season. Berbatov is priced at 13/10 to score during the match with 9/2 that he’ll score the opening goal.
A score line of 1-0 to Manchester United looks the most likely with odds available at 11/2.
