Betting: Arsenal

United go into their Champions League semi-final against Arsenal as 9/4 second favourites to retain the trophy, with Barcelona 7/4 ahead of their clash with Chelsea.

The Gunners are the 7/2 outsiders to triumph in Rome on May 27, with Chelsea 10/3 to atone for their disappointment in Moscow last year.

Firstly, there's the small matter of Arsenal's visit to Old Trafford, and it’s 5/6 that the Reds win at Old Trafford and take an advantage to the Emirates Stadium next Tuesday, with Arsenal priced at 10/3 and the draw at 5/2. Overall, United are 8/13 favourites to reach the final and Arsene Wenger’s side 6/5 to qualify from the tie.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney, who both scored two goals against Tottenham on Saturday, are 4/1 joint favourites to score first. Dimitar Berbatov and Carlos Tevez are both 5/1.
