Odds are against AC Milan winning at Old Trafford on Wednesday
March 9, 2010
Manchester United fans will be salivating on Wednesday night at the prospect of former United hero David Beckham appearing in the Champions League second leg fixture for his new team AC Milan. Out will come the camera phones and Old Trafford will be echoing the familiar chanting about a former Spice Girl taking something, somewhere that dare not be repeated here.
The online bookmakers Paddy Power are running one of their famous cash back offers on this Champions League tie. If there are more than 3 goals scored in the match then Paddypower will refund all of the losing first and last goal scorers made on the match as well as correct score and scorecast singles made on the match.
Man Utd v AC Milan match odds
The above odds show what kind of mountain Beckham and his team will have to face against the in-form Manchester Untied, they will however be grateful that United are likely to rest Rooney tonight and that Michael Owen is now out for the rest of the season leaving the fire power for United going to Dimitar Berbatov.

Who will win the most TV debates?
Of the three leaders it is David Cameron (@conservatives) who knows how to use the media the most, he can be man of people (Dave), a voice for kids (Big D) or when serious (David), his competition on the other hand are the sorry Labour leader Gordon brown (@browngordon) who can doing right in the publics eyes and mystery man Nick Clegg (@nick_clegg).

- 5/4 – Gordon Brown (Labour)
- 6/1 – Nick Clegg (Liberal Democrats)
- 12/1 Three way tie

First to openly sweat
Odds are pointing to Mr. Clegg to start the sweating process first, this will undoubtedly be his largest television exposure to date so his nerves may being to show.
