Hey Ambivalent AC Milan are my team so my opinion may be biased however I don't think they should be written off at all for this fixture. With proven goalscorers Shevchenko + Inzaghi up front, Kaka and Seedorf feeding ball and Cafu giving them width on the right, I can't see Milan not being able to score a goal in two consecutive champions league matches against a backline which I would only regard as satisfactory. Marquez and Puyol are on yellow cards and I can see them being quite tentative especially in the opening 30 minutes. On merit Barca deserve to go to Paris for the final however the best team on paper doesn't always win. I would definitely have Milan amongst the goals and as such my tip is 1-2 with Milan going through to the final on the away goal rule.


West Ham v Liverpool - On any given day Liverpool are a 3 goal better team than the hammers. I played against Reo-coker and Ferdinand as a Spurs youth team player and do not particularly rate them. All their best talent (Carrick, Cole, Ferdinand) end up at bigger clubs and West Ham are stuck with scraps. Liverpool are a day fresher and have a full squad to select from, so my tip is 0-2 in favour of Liverpool.

I know you won't find these tips appealing Ambi as you don't really like backing away teams but I do give both teams realistic chances of winning.
