Bookies Struggle to Separate United and Chelsea for Euro Glory

Man United will be facing Chelsea in this season's FA Cup final and the odds suggest the same could happen in this season's Champions League final as well. After a crushing 8-3 aggregate win over Roma, United have been installed as slight favourites with some firms (2/1 bet365) although there's little difference in price with Chelsea available at 9/4 with Ladbrokes.This is perhaps a reflection on the semi-final opponents of both teams. While Milan (9/2 VC Bet to win Champions League) have an illustrious European history, United will be confident of overcoming another Italian opponent. On the other hand, Chelsea will not be relishing two legs against Liverpool (7/2 bet365) who they came unstuck against in 2005.With the second leg to be played at Anfield, the 6/5 (Stan James) about Rafa Benitez's men qualifying for their second final in three seasons looks a fair shout, especially with Chelsea's fixture congestion over the next month. Man United also look a solid bet to overcome Milan and the 4/6 (ladbrokes) about them doing so may not be around for long.
