Apologies for the absence of 'Champions League You Bet' last time around. Circumstances beyond my control, I'm afraid ('being on holiday' being a more useful explanation), but it's back, back, back once again in time for the Champions League semi-finals, you lucky people...As has been said during every week of this feature since the dawn of time, we're struggling to raise some money for our favourite football-related charity on account of the fact that our bets haven't been coming up trumps - a lesson in why not to gamble if ever there was one - but we remain determined to improve on our initial £10 stake until the very last kick of the 2008 Final.
This week, we're focussing solely on the first leg of the semi-final between Barcelona and Manchester United that's taking place this Wednesday. All you have to do is choose the bet you think is most likely to bring in some winnings and make your selection accordingly. Here's this week's three options for you to survey, and study them carefully as we don't want any more careless selections like we've had for the previous eight weeks (ahem...)
Bet A
Samuel Eto'o to score first
Potential winnings: £7.00
Bet B
Man United to win 2-1
Potential winnings: £10.00
Bet C
Rio Ferdinand to score at any time
Potential winnings: £17.00
