Home first away second

[Skillz]

They have, but you wouldnt bet on it would you?

It's desperate hope rather than realistic expectation.

Agree, but if we didn't have hope we wouldn't have come back from 3-0 down.

Luke Skywalker would of fried aswell.

heres my view:

in general terms its better to have the home leg 1st

Its only because of the exceptional anfield atmosphere that teams fear coming here - even when they are a goal ahead from the 1st leg.

if we get to the bridge with a 0-0 or win to nil, id make us good favourites.
In a game as close as us v the chavs, the extra 30 mins on their field represents an extra chance to get the away goal as much as anything.

weve turned over juve, inter and others playing at home 1st. whats to fear in a team we are better than and mentally stronger than?

I'm actually pleased the fixtures are reversed this time, Chelsea would have been so up to do us in the second leg at Anfield at the third attempt

also that horrible feeling towards the end of the second leg when your at home knowing that one goal by them means we need two senario

I can see a 2-0 win tonight and then us being 2-0 down at the Bridge and then scoring a killer 88th minute goal to go 2-1

Sound's feasible.

I have predicted 3-0 tonight

Kuyt
Torres
Babel or Gerrard


0-1 in the second leg (4-0 aggregate)
