Barca should win 2-3 matches. Can't imagine Jose-coached team going 0-4

Barcelona needs only 2 wins to completely destroy Madrid's season.

Well.. no, they could win the league game and cup game and lose in the CL and that'd make Jose a happy man. Since 2002 have Madrid even made the semis till now?

I only care about the 2 CL games. La Liga is locked up and obviously CL>Copa del Rey

Looking forward to watching these games, I can't decide who to root for.

Pick Real Madrid, if you want to get disappointed.

They need only 1 championsleague win and the cup final. The league is already decided in their favour. :dontknow:

This is why I'll be going for Real.

Despite getting humbled big time by Madrid in the CL quarters I'd still rather see them beat Barca than vice versa, if only to hopefully end this 'best team ever' tripe once and for all.

Okay, I've decided on Real. The arrogance of Barcas fans, and players, overrides my dislike of Ronaldo and Mourinho.

May I advertise you rooting for the Timberwolves, too, when you wanna get disappointed?

Let Real win the Championsleague and it's gonna be the same story there, too. They've calmed down a little because they've sucked for ages in the CL now but if they win it I it's gonna be just as bad as Barca.

You may have missed the point

But in any case I'm a Bucks fan, I'm well versed in NBA disappointment :lol:

As a Barca fan I honestly couldn't care less about the result of the upcoming league fixture (although Pep is placing a lot of emphasis on it I doubt that this is much beyond mind games). I'd be happy if we won the Copa del Rey final and didn't lose at the Bernabeu (or lost 1-0 or something). Quite confident that we'll beat Real handily at home in the second leg.

In terms of the 4 upcoming games my predictions are:

League: Barca 1-2 Real Madrid
Copa del Rey: Barca 2-0 Real Madrid
CL Leg 1 (Santiago Bernabeu): Barca 2-2 Real Madrid
CL Leg 2 (Nou Camp): Barca 3-0 Real Madrid

Barça 11; Valdés, Alves, Piqué, Puyol, Adriano, Busquets, Xavi, Iniesta, Pedro, Messi and Villa

Real Madrid's 11; Casillas, Sergio R., Albiol, Carvalho, Marcelo, Pepe, Khedira, X.Alonso, Di Maria, C.Ronaldo and Benzema

Looks like Pepe will be playing in the holding role
