Do people think that the draw is fixed?
When were the last times Barca, Madrid or Bayern were drawn together before the semis? Serious question.
Last season.
Barca-Bayern and Madrid-Juve that season.
Barca and Madrid have only ever met twice in the Champions League.
In the 2002 semis when Madrid were top-ranked by UEFA coeff and United, in the other semi, were second-ranked. Barca were ranked 4th at the start of the season.
In the 2011 semis when, well exactly the same as in 2002 actually except this time it was Barca that were top-ranked. Madrid were ranked 13th at the start of the season.
Anyone care to work out the odds of Barca and Madrid never meeting in the quarters?
