UEFA Champions League Final - Juventus v Barcelona

[Hibbyradge]

I realise that it's early, but hopefully the kind admins will allow this to stand as there are no otheer threads about tonight's game which should be a cracker.

Barcelona are clear favourites at 8/13, but I'm not so sure it will be a stroll in the park for them.

Juventus won Serie A by a country mile, beating Roma by 17 points, and, just like Barca, they also won their domestic cup. And, let's not forget, they disposed of Real Madrid, who were huge favourites in that tie.

The best price available for a Juve win is 5/1 - it was 11/2 earlier in the day and Paddy Power has been bet down to 9/2.

There's not much value in backing Barcelona, unless you go for a big correct score, so I might have a wee interest bet on Juventus. Bet Victor is offering 21/1 for a 2-1 Juve success to win 2-1 within 90 minutes.

Does anyone else think that Juventus have an earthly?

I've got 3-0 for barca. Coral also have a good offer for new customers that are giving you 10/1 for barca to win and messi to score anytime, £20 free bet if it doesn't come in.

Imo juve will miss Chiellini, he's a big awkward looking defender but I think he's absolutely brilliant. I think if they were to win they needed him.

[SteveHFC]

Got a £10 free bet with PP so lumped it all on Barca.

[Mon Dieu4]

I signed up to marathon bet, they were giving enhanced odds of 5/1 for Barca in 90 mins as an introductory offer if you use their mobile site

Juve might score but i dont think they will. 2 or 3 nil Barca, just cant see anything else. I dont think there is a team in the world that can stop that front 3 when they really want to play, and tonight they will imho stroll it.

You're probably right. There's little or no chance that the three of them will have off nights, and if even one of them is on song, they're a match for anyone.

Still, it's football...

Never rule out the possibility of an Italian defensive masterclass. (I've no idea if any Italians will be playing in defence for juve but you know what I mean)

Yes its still football, and we only have to look to our own game at hampden to see how a team can have all the play, but none of the goals.

Still 2 or 3 nil for me.

[trev the hat]

Suarez 2-1 & 3-1 (28/1)
Neymar 2-1 & 3-1 (40/1)
Here's hoping 👍

[BH Hibs]

Juve 6/1 bet before the second leg of the semi.

[liamh2202]

I have messi to score a brace,tevez to score, and pogba to be carded 60/1 and yes I was bored

[Big_Franck]

Can't see past Barca. They don't lose champions league finals.

[ekhibee]

Jusy my opinion but I hope Barcelona do win. Most of the time they're great to watch and even though Juventus are a good team, and have been a brilliant team in the past, they have also been one of the most corrupt. As I said though, it's just my opinion.

[Just_Jimmy]

Forza Juve.

[Hannah_hfc]

Got Juve to win and Pirlo to score anytime 33/1 with Paddy Power as an outside bet.

Barcelona to win and Neymar to score anytime has won me quite a bit this season so got it as my safe(r) bet @ 13/5.

Hoping for a good match!

[PeeJay]

Difficult to see past Barcelona and Messi, but that's the great thing about the game of football: it doesn't always end up the way "it should" on paper - here's to a great game anyway! Think I'd like to see Pirlo finish off his career with a winner's medal ...

Fantastic weather here in Berlin at the moment - here's a link with some impression of the fans here in Berlin prior to the game:

People very much underestimating Juventus in here. Best midfield in the world IMO and Barzagli is a top defender who can fill in for Chiellini no problem. It could easily go either way.

[hfc rd]

Think Barca will win this by 2 goals.

I'm finding it difficult to even care about this collection of multi-millionaires and their attempts to make even more money but I suppose hatred for a cheating Club will make me look at the score.


Sorry for the downer, just pretty much had it with 'top level' football, with it's stupid wages, bungs and bribery.

[whiskyhibby]

I think Juve will win, hope so off to Milan next week for work dealing mostly with Juve fans ️️

I hope you are right G, had a sizeable bet on Golden Horn - Barca -1 double.

[Northernhibee]

Messi first and 4-0 Barca, 45/1. Fiver on.

I've taken them at 5/1.

Also a wee side bet correct score of 2-0 Juve at 43/1 on the betfair exchange

What a finish by Golden Horn

[Cod Boy]

4.0 Barca Suarez first goal

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Ladbrokes will be offering 6/4 for Barca to win the trophy from the moment the game kicks off until the first goal is scored, tenner max bet.

3 Italians, a Swiss and a Frenchman probably.

I think Juve will score, but Barca will win reasonably comfortably. I'm going to go 4-2 Barca as an outside bet.

[offshorehibby]

I just have this sneaky feeling Juventus will sneak it and at 5/1 i've taken that and Tevez to score any time.

[renato]

Sky bet have a great offer for Vidal first scorer (Juve's penalty taker) and 1-1 or 2-0 Juve, 85-1 I think....

[Sir David Gray]

Thank God this match is on STV, can't bear listening to Jamie Carragher much more.

Hope Patrice Evra goes right through Luis Suarez tonight.
