UEFA Champions League

Manchester United are in good position to book place in the next round of UEFA Champions League. They managed to win 3-2 in first leg in Milan, and Sir Alex Ferguson will definitely know how to guide his experienced team to positive result tonight.

Ferguson is boosted by the return of key player Wayne Rooney, and his only absentees are veteran Ryan Giggs, midfielder Michael Carrick and defender Wes Brown, but there is plenty of cover in United squad for all these places.

Milan head coach Leonardo will be forced into attacking game tonight, as anything else than a win means his team is out of competition. His major worry is fitness of star striker Alessandre Pato, so Klaas-Jan Huntelar could get another start up front alongside Ronaldinho. Former United winger David Beckham, now in Milan shirt, will probably have to settle for a place on the bench in his first return to Old Trafford.

No big philosophy about this match is needed. Milan will have to win in order to have chances to advance, so they will need goals. Experienced Alex Ferguson will know how to respond to expected attacking tactics of his opponent tonight, and with plenty of quality on both sides we should see few goals in what should be open and attractive match.

I tipped Over 2.5 goals in first leg, and I'll go for the same tonight.
