Barcelona and Manchester United meet in Rome tonight to contest the UEFA Champions League final and the opportunity to be crowned the best club side in Europe.

The Spanish and English domestic title holders are undoubtedly the best two teams in Europe and both are deserving of their place in the final.

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson believes this clash ‘paints the real story of football’ and everyone is expecting a classic, me included.

It will be tools down early today as I’m planning on watching the pre match build up from 6pm – something I rarely do.

Both teams have their concerns as they prepare to do battle with suspensions and injuries with Barca looking the more wounded of the two.

The Catalan giants are without full-backs Daniel Alves and Eric Abidal due to suspension although they are hopeful Iniesta and Henry have both overcome injuries to play.

The djmick household will be rooting for the Spaniards to come out victorious. Let’s hope the Messi and Eto’o goals flow as well as the beer in what has been dubbed, The Dream Final.

Even search giant Google are up for the game with a special Champions League logo live across Europe today.
