Well it's the first time the two teams meet each other. Here are the probable lineups with who's reffing. Juventus: 1-Gianluigi Buffon; 27-Jonathan Zebina, 21-Lilian Thuram, 28-Fabio Cannavaro, 19-Gianluca Zambrotta; 16-Mauro Camoranesi, 8-Emerson, 20-Manuele Blasi; 11-Pavel Nedved; 9-Zlatan Ibrahimovic, 25-Marcelo Zalayeta. Bayern Munich: 1-Oliver Kahn; 4-Samuel Kuffour, 3-Lucio, 25-Thomas Linke, 20-Hasan Salihamidzic; 16-Jens Jeremies, 8-Torsten Frings, 13-Michael Ballack, 11-Ze Roberto; 9-Vahid Hashemian, 10-Roy Makaay Referee: Manuel Mejuto Gonzalez (Spain)
According to today's Gazzetta Ale is fit to play, but it is up to him if he wants to play, but Capello said that if Ale gives the word that he wants to play he will start!
Though he'd be just coming off of injury having Ale back would be great. Add depth up front and creativity as well. Hope he is alright and ready to go. Is this really the first time Juve and Bayern have met? I'd have thought these giants had a long history already. In this round I'll predict a win2-0 for Juve, though Bayern remain deadly and could easily win or force a draw. Nedved will be one of the stars of the match.
I soooo hope you are right on us winning, but that bloody Makaay up front, he does not even need half a chance to score... I am off to the ground soon, see you all tomorrow.
Not sure Kuffour is in... Munich reported that Gorlitz is on. It is a great matchup regardless... best of luck and may the best team win (or draw?). It is a damn shame we will only get another Real Madrid match on ESPN2 in the States. This game would be worth seeing.
They're making a lot of offsides calls on Ibrahimovic. 17' Bayern finally get a shot on goal, Buffon makes the save From the Ajax - Tel Aviv game [result]Ajax 1-0 Tel Aviv[/result]

Kuffour is in. He's playing well for Bayern. Anyone knows why Appiah is not on Juve bench today? I don't know if he's suspended
Does anyone know a URL where I can locate pub venues (in Manahattan) which show ESPN Deportes games (i.e. Bayern - Juve)? Have been searching for ever all over the f%6king web and can't find anthing useful!
