^^Yeah LFC_Bitcoin, I'd love for Real to be in the final purely for selfish reasons. I think it'd be equally hard to win against either them or City. On the plus side, we'd be the underdogs (again) against City, and that's really how we'd prefer to operate.

I really do not believe that there is any underdogs at that level. If you reached finals of UCL then the two teams are equals and will always be equals in my mind. Even a few years ago when Spurs was in the finals and everyone believed it was impossible for them to get the cup, I still believed it was 50-50% because in a single game match I would not bet on anyone to be a guaranteed thing.

What I believe is the same -- we are as good as City, and can match them any day, 1 win and 2 draws in the last meeting does underline how close it is, but the odds on all past 3 games have always put City as the favourite, even if barely so (about 2/1 as opposed to Liverpool 3/1 or more).

So it doesn't matter what I or you believe, the odds prove where the money is, even if I'm sure Liverpool has the bigger fanbase, the money's on City.

I agree that City vs LFC will be 50-50% deal for sure, there isn't any guarantee at all, maybe FA cup made Liverpool look like they are much better but at the end of the day it was FA cup and at this stage with such tightly packed schedule, not everyone cares about FCA up that much, LFC didn't neither to be fair but apparently City didn't even harder.

I wouldn't be shocked at a Madrid vs Villareal final neither and would literally give 50-50% on that too, I agree with that but still... Real would win that one to be fair, I mean yes it is just one game but do you really think that Madrid would lose that? So, all we have to do is base our bets on what looks like a better possibility even if you think it's equals on paper.

I would be disappointed if it’s not City vs Liverpool or Real Madrid vs Liverpool in the finals, because I don’t expect Villarreal to win or give a tough fight therefore I’m hoping for one of the above scenario. Furthermore Liverpool and City are equals and it’s a no brainer to wage on them, and let’s also hope that’s Steve will give us boosted odds for the return fixtures.
