[*End Is Forever*]

Interesting that lots of you aren't backing United to score in the Bernebeu...

[MikeH]

I definitely think they'll score. It's just a question of how many they let in.

[Paul]

Interesting how many people think Ajax will win, and only one person thinks Ajax will lose.

[MikeH]

I was torn between an away win and a draw in that one. They do seem very hard to break down though.

[*End Is Forever*]

Haven't seen any of the Ajax matches so far. Are they playing like the Liverpool of the Netherlands...?

[MikeH]

No, they are top of the league and still in the Champions League.
