The Merse Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Well both ties look like dead rubbers to be fair. We need early goals if it is to be even half interesting but I think it's just far too big an ask for either Spurs or Inter to overturn a 4 goal deficits. I know Inter only trail by 3, but they'd need to win 4-0 to do it so it's an effective 4 goal victory required. CL QF's have been a bit of a let down to be honest, only one tie has been semi competitive. Predictions: Spurs 2-1 Real Madrid Schalke 1-2 Inter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Palmer Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Spurs: Gomes; Corluka, Dawson, Gallas, Assou-Ekotto; Lennon, Huddlestone, Modric, Bale; Van der Vaart, Pavlyuchenko. Real: Casillas, Arbeloa, Albiol, Carvalho, Ramos; Marcelo, Alonso, Khedira, Ozil; Ronaldo, Adebayor. Should be a decent match...loads of goals please.

P-Dizzle Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Expected Madrid not to field as strong a side as that. Was listening to Balague earlier and he was saying that Real will be using this game as a test run for the game against Barca, Albiol probably playing just infront of the back four in the role that he thinks Pepe will play in el clasico. They've both played that holding role before, and this is a good way to see the team play in that shape where they expect a lot of pressure from Spurs.
