Champions League prediction – why Liverpool don't stand a chance

By Jim Leaviss

This has not been a great footballing year for the bond team. There are glum faces all round as our seasons have ended in disaster, to an extent that surely cannot be explained by random bad luck. We have, somehow, displeased the gods of football.

Here’s how it finished for our teams:
– David Fancourt’s Watford – relegated from the Premiership
– Richard Woolnough’s Chesterfield – relegated from League 1
– Dan Gardner’s Leeds United – relegated from the Championship
– My Nottingham Forest – humilated by Yeovil in the League 1 playoffs on Friday night

Which just leaves Stefan, and Liverpool FC in the Champions League final on Wednesday, and explains why a betting man would back Milan this time round.

 

The value of investments will fluctuate, which will cause prices to fall as well as rise and you may not get back the original amount you invested. Past performance is not a guide to future performance.
