Bakero predict​​: The veterans of Chelsea will suffer at "Camp Nou"

2.07.2012

Former team-mate of Josep Guardiola in Barcelona - Jose Maria Bakero, predicted that Chelsea will suffer tonight at "Camp Nou". The Londoners have a lead of 1:0 after the first leg at "Stamford Bridge" in the semifinals of the Champions League and tonight they come in the second leg against the the present winner of the trophy.

"Chelsea won the first match, but Barcelona had four or five very good opportunities, but two of them had hit the corssbar. So I think Barcelona won't change the concept, but the team just need to be more effective in this match" said Bakero.

"Barcelona have their own structure and a certain way of playing and now Chelsea will try to score a goal. I think that the Londoners will have many problemsat "Nou Camp". It's true that Chelsea have very good individual players, but they are already veterans and probably now physical will suffer at "Nou Camp". I don't see a place in which Barcelona is weaker than Chelsea" added the expert.

"I think that Francesc Fabregas will start as a holder, I think Alexis Sanchez will start in attack. I believe that Pep will choose the more experienced players. That day against Real Madridhe let two young players, but I think there were also those that were not very fresh physically, so in their place he prefered the younger. But I think that now they will play" said Bakero on the occasion of the match tonight
