Arsenals were eliminated from the Champions League by a gallant performance from Liverpool. Diaby in the 13th min scored for Arsenals who were having the better of the first half. From a brilliant set piece in the 30th minute, Hypia reduced the deficit and Liverpool were now on level terms again. The second half, Liverpool play with more purpose and they were reward wit a fine goal by Torres in the 69th minute. Walcott made a brilliant move and pass the ball onto Adebayor who scored with ease and Arsenals were now level and with the away goal rule , they were in line for a shot at the semi finals.

Chelsea will have to dig deep to cancel out the advantage that the Turks bring with them this evening and will have to lead by at least two goals or more. They are capable of winning here and going into the finals

Arsenals v Liverpool - Uefa Quarter Finals

Return leg of the quarter finals tonight and tomorrow evening
Arsenal meet Liverpool at Anfield this evening and it will be the third time they play against each other in a matter of 8 days. Twice now in the Quarter Finals and one Premier League game. The last two matches have ended in a one all draw and this evening they play the second leg. The match will be tight with both teams aiming for a win in order to progress and both managers have plotting their game plans that includes taking of penalties in the event of a draw again this evening after normal and extra time. My view that team that scores first will most probably go forward. IN the other match.

Prediction : Arsenals to progress
