UCL LAST 16
Man Utd at most risk in English bid for UCL sweep
Holders Manchester United's tie with Inter Milan is the most precariously balanced as the big four English teams bid to reach the Champions League quarter-finals for the second year in succession.
United were held 0-0 in Milan in the first leg last month whereas Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea all hold 1-0 leads. Alex Ferguson's side beat Inter 3-1 on aggregate en route to their Champions League success in 1999 but an away goal at Old Trafford on Wednesday would put the Italian champions through in case of a score draw.
United's impressive defensive record will be put to the test as injuries might force manager Alex Ferguson to field a makeshift back four but he will be relieved that Nemanja Vidic is available after missing the first leg through suspension.
He may be tempted to field Carlos Tevez from the start after the Argentine striker's two-goal performance in United's 4-0 FA Cup win at Fulham on Saturday.
Inter coach Jose Mourinho also has injury worries in defence but will welcome the return to form of strikers Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Mario Balotelli, who both scored in Saturday's 2-0 win at Genoa.
Last season's runners-up Chelsea will fancy their chances of eliminating twice champions Juventus in Turin on Tuesday after a Didier Drogba goal gave them the edge in the first leg at Stamford Bridge.
The Ivorian, who has scored three goals in his last four games, won praise from Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink for his work ethic, having fallen out with the Dutchman's predecessor Luiz Felipe Scolari over the same issue.
"From the first day when I have seen him, Drogba was a guy that was working hard," Hiddink said after Drogba scored in the 2-0 win at Coventry that put Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-finals.
While Chelsea will be boosted by the return of Michael Essien and Ricardo Carvalho, Juventus will sorely miss midfielder Mohammed Sissoko, who broke a foot in Saturday's 1-0 win over city foes Torino.
Arsenal, runners-up in 2006, take a 1-0 lead to Rome for their meeting with AS Roma on Wednesday following a 3-0 FA Cup victory over Burnley on Sunday.
Liverpool, who won Europe's premier club competition for the fifth time in 2005, had a weekend off as they prepared to defend their 1-0 lead against nine-times winners Real Madrid at Anfield on Tuesday.
Real's rekindled Spanish title hopes suffered a setback on Saturday when a 1-1 draw with city rivals Atletico left them six points behind leaders Barcelona and once again exposed their defensive frailties, only poor finishing from Atletico denying the visitors a win at the Bernabeu.
Atletico will need the lethal finishing of Uruguay's Diego Forlan and his Argentine strike partner Sergio Aguero if they are to eliminate 2004 winners Porto following a 2-2 first-leg draw in Spain.
The South American hitmen have scored 30 league goals between them this season, including the last five in a 4-3 home win over Barcelona and the draw with Real.
Barcelona ended a patchy run of form with a 2-0 league win over Athletic Bilbao on Saturday and are favourites to go through after a 1-1 first-leg draw at Olympique Lyon.
Bayern Munich are virtually assured of a berth in the last eight after a 5-0 first-leg win against Sporting in Lisbon.
Panathinaikos host Villarreal with the slender advantage of an away goal after a 1-1 draw against the 2006 semi-finalists in the first leg.

Danger for Gunners fans
MENACE ... an Ultra hides his face
ARSENAL have warned fans not to travel alone in Rome for tomorrow’s Champions League clash. And the worried Gunners printed a booklet to advise which areas to avoid before the Roma match.
An Italian police escort will lead Arsenal buses to and from the Stadio Olimpico to avoid confrontation with Roma’s ‘Ultra’ hooligan supporters. The Italian club are due to host this year’s Champions League final but have a history of crowd violence.
They have been warned by UEFA that they risk losing the final on May 27 if there are any further serious incidents.
Manchester United fans came under attack twice in eight months in Rome. Attacks took place on the Ponte Duca D’Aosta and Arsenal have told fans to stay away from that bridge.
The Gunners have sold their allocation of 3,400 tickets but only 330 of those supporters are paying for an official trip.
Yet Arsenal will provide free buses for every Arsenal fan who can show a match ticket. The club’s information guide says: “If you travel to the stadium independently, please be aware you are at risk.
“Do not take trains to the Piazza Flaminio or attempt to use the Ponte Duca D’Aosta bridge as these are habitual routes taken by the Ultras.
“Please stay away from the Campo De Fiori.” Arsenal fans will be held in the ground for two hours after the match so police can secure the local area.

Looks like Madrid are out, it's only 30mins and Pool are up 2-0 courtesy of Torres and Gerrard's penalty, leading 3-0 on aggregate.
Shocker is Juve leading 1-0.
I'm sad that Pool is leading
-

Ya loh, ref is obviously being biased here.

ju 1-1 chel

Chelsea is back 1-1, Essien back from such a long injury scores with a tap in. Juve needs to score 2 without reply to go through. Looks like the 1st 2 English teams will be going through tonight.
Bayern is leading 4-1 at HT, leaving it to be 9-1 on agg.
Madrid is still trailing by 2 goals to nothing as we speak and the Villarreal match is still without a goal.
-
The officials for the liv vs madrid game blows... I feel the liverpool goals are results of bad decisions... The referee also disrupted the flow of the game when he should have let play continue on several occasions, this certainly have undermine the excitement of the match
-
ok the 3rd goal wasn't a result of bad decision
-
Liverpool 3-0 up.
-

2-1 to Juve, beautiful penalty taken by Piero.
Will Juve score one more and go through? Or will Chelsea fan the storm?
-
Drogba equalises 2-2, good bye to Juve. The Old Lady in black and white is fading out of the tournament.
