BBC Sport - Football - Fulham v Hamburg (agg 0-0) on ITV 4
BBC Sport - Football - Liverpool v Atletico Madrid (agg 0-1) on Ch.5

So, predictions?

Im pulling for an all English final and I really think its the more probably outcome.

Scousers to get beat 3-0.

Wow really? Thats quite a bold prediction to make!

If either club gets knocked out though and the all English final falls through, then id put my money on the scousers being the ones to slip up.

Bobby Zamora's missing for Fulham though isn't he? He was last I heard of the situation anyway. I don't know if Clint Dempsey's back from injury for them either, but even if they were, it's a tough call for me. Fulham to scrape through I reckon. Same story at Anfield (owing to Rafa's current striker shortage).

Zamora is on. Dempseys on the bench. I think they have enough to get through. They've started reasonably well, they seem to be pushing it and trying to boss it which I think they need to do.

It's a mixed prediction, half hopeful/positive thinking mixed with a sneaky suspicion that the Scousers are gonna get turned over.

Ah, that changes matters then.

Improbable, but weirder things have happened in the UEFA Cup with English teams. Take Middlesborough's semi final for instance, or even Fulham's home leg against Juventus earlier this season.

I just wish I access to a TV so I could watch the bloody thing.
