Double is on...

The two side that will meet in European club football’s showcase event require just  1 point to secure their respective league titles, thus ensuring that an historic double will be won.

Barcelona’s 2-0 victory over derby rivals Espanyol during the weekend sees them just needing to avoid defeat when they face Levante on Wednesday to clinch their 21st Spanish La Liga crown.

Manchester United saw off their nearest challengers for the crown, Chelsea with a 2-1 win during the latest round of Premier League fixtures. The single point now needed for United who face Blackburn during next weekend, will see them break Liverpool’s record league title haul of 18, which was set back in 1990.

If both teams win the necessary point needed, it ensures that the European Cup final will be contested by newly crowned champions, aiming for a memorable double winning season.
