My continued torture only worsened last night as Man.U beat Brentford and to compound matters further, you lot took a fortune off me as we had a couple of big winners!

Full details at the end of the post as normal but firstly, another step towards the history books tonight as it's the Champions League semi-final, second-leg between...

@nathen007's Prediction

Liverpool go onto this 2-0 up on aggregate and after their endless march towards glory, I find it difficult to oppose them tonight, even in the pressure cooker of vitriol and passion that will be the Estadio de la Cerámica.

Liverpool had a tough game on Saturday against Newcastle on Saturday where they rested a number of key players but all will be back and available tonight. The only issues are Origi who has been ill and Firmino who has injured his foot.

With nothing left to lose and sitting a lowly 7th in La Liga, Villarreal will be dangerous and come out all guns blazing with an attacking mentality and Liverpool will need to steady themselves to get through the initial onslaught.

Villarreal boss and former Arsenal manager, Unai Emery has his work cut out to get his team back into the Champions League next season knowing that nothing short of winning the tournament outright will get them there. They are here this season only because they won last season's Europa League.

He was giving nothing away in his presser this week so as far as injuries and team selection are concerned, your guess is as good as mine!

If Liverpool do survive the opening 15 minutes, I can't see them losing this and knowing they have no worries about away goals, we might see a more defensive, calm and measured performance from the quadruple champions elect!

Prediction: Villarreal 1 : 1 Liverpool - First goalscorer: Mane

Simply write the name of the FIRST GOALSCORER, the CORRECT SCORE AND the TIME OF THE FIRST GOAL as a comment. The competition closes 5 minutes before kick-off which is 20.00BST

Don't forget, you can't choose the same prediction as me!

In the first goalscorer competition, own goals do not count. In the correct score competition, it's the score after 90mins. Extra time and penalties do not count and the pot for each competition is fixed at 25K except for the time of the first goal competition which rolls over daily starting at 1K. If more than one person chooses the same first goal scorer or correct score, the prize is shared, and everyone gets a little upvote! Don't forget, you can't choose the same prediction as me! It seems I also need to add, one entry per person. Don't forget the new rule that only people with a rep of 50 or above are eligible to enter unless they have been approved. My game, my decision is final.

And the Winners Were...

So it finished Manchester United 3 Brentford 0. The first goal was scored by Bruno Fernandes after 9 minutes so let's take a look down the entries!

So, @firstborn.pob takes the full correct score pot of 25K and @jfang003 took the full 25K pot for correctly predicting Fernandes as the first goalscorer! Well done to you two, tokens should be in your wallets.

Again, no one correctly got the time of the first goal so the pot rises up again to 24000! It will be interesting to see exactly how high it does get!

And that's all folks for another day! Apologies for being a bit later than normal today, I should have tomorrow's other semi-final game up a little earlier.

Thanks as always for joining in and enjoy the game tonight!

Marching On Together
