Preview: Man Utd vs Chelsea
Who will win the trophy? Tonight sees Man Utd take on Chelsea in the Champions League Final in Moscow, and the months of hard work all come to a climax as one of England's top two sides takes home the Champions League trophy...
Since Man Utd won the Premiership crown, Chelsea have pushed all focus on to the Champions League, meanwhile Manchester United have quickly shifted their thoughts from celebrating Premiership glory onto the tough battle in Moscow.
The Premiership champions last won the Champions League in 1999 - that glorious night where they defeated Bayern Munich in Barcelona - whilst Chelsea have never lifted the European showpiece trophy.
This is the first time the European Cup has been contested two Premiership sides.
Squads for the Final
Man Utd squad: Van der Sar, Kuszczak, Heaton; Brown, Evra, Ferdinand, Vidic, Neville, O'Shea, Pique, Silvestre, Anderson, Fletcher, Hargreaves, Carrick, Scholes, Giggs, Nani, Park, Ronaldo, Rooney, Tevez, Saha, Welbeck.
Chelsea squad: Cech, Hilario, Cudicini, Belletti, Ferreira, Alex, Ben-Haim, Terry, Carvalho, A Cole, Bridge, Makelele, Essien, Lampard, Ballack, Kalou, Wright-Phillips, J Cole, Malouda, Drogba, Shevchenko, Anelka, Mikel.
Man Utd welcome back Nemanja Vidic, and boss Sir Alex Ferguson has some big decisions to make, does he field both Carlos Tevez and Wayne Rooney, or does he play a midfield trio of Hargreaves, Carrick and Scholes.
Meanwhile, Chelsea are sweating on the fitness of Ashley Cole, who was crocked by Claude Makelele in training yesterday in Moscow.
Ricardo Carvalho, John Terry and Didier Drogba are all expected to return from injury, while Michael Essien will be likely to fill in at right back for the Blues.
