On the way to Nou Camp

Manchester United didn't have the best game on Saturday, but neither did their next opponent, Barcelona. United managed to get a point after Tevez's equalizer at the 88th minute against Blackburn Rovers, while Barca were held at a goalless draw against local rivals Espanyol. They opted to rest Messi and Iniesta and saw the team slip 11 points (3rd place) behind the leaders of La Liga, Real Madrid.

Interestingly, in Europe, United and Barca have the same exact record:
2007/08 Champions League

Manchester United
Played: 10
Won: 8
Drawn 2
Lost 0
Scored: 18
Conceded: 5

Barcelona
Played: 10
Won: 8
Drawn 2
Lost 0
Scored: 18

So even the stats show how even the two teams are... Gonna be a very exciting match!
