Well big game tonight. Been looking forward to it eversince the draw was made. Should be a top game and especially looking forward to seeing Vieira back at Highbury.
We'll see how the youngsters of the Arsenal do against the oldies of Juve. We just have to make sure we don't concede the away goal, if we can do that then we have a very good chance of going through.
Predictions? I say 1-0 Arsenal. Henry to score ... of course

Agree the main thing tonight is not to concede the away goal as going back to Juve for the return leg will always be difficult, even more so if they have an away goal to the good.
My prediction 2-0 Arsenal
Juve are a good side, a very good side, and it will be a close game. A lot will depend on Henry's pace, and how well people like Zlatan are marked up.
Nedved suspended i think also
Yet another brilliant night of football from the Gunners! Say what you say about us beating Madrid but we have just outplayed a Juventus team who are running away with the Italian league. Just another top performance from everyone. Just everything was brilliant!!
Funny to see them pretty much losing it, two men sent off and Capello's face just said it all.
That team couldn't possibly be 8-points clear at the top of Serie A?
Camoranesi getting sent off and waving to the crowd, Vieira and Zebina missing the next game, the greatness of Fabregas. :thumb:
It's always a delight to see an Italian team getting a spanking:D
Is only half time though...Juve won't be so shite in Turin.
Arsenal got a lot of free-kicks they wouldn't have got in the Premiershit.
Looking forward to the second leg, hopefully the gunners can pull a win off in Turin also.
and you just knew before the game started the Viera would pick up a yellow card to miss the second leg. Not surprised Camoranesi got sent off though.
As Kermit has said, the reason for Arsenal not doing so well in the premiership is because its much more physical then European football. Think though once the young 'uns get used to it (started to already) this is going to be another quality Arsenal side.
Don't know about anyone else but I would much prefer Arsenal to win the premiership playing football like that, hats off to Wenger for creating such good footballing sides.
Enjoyed this game, Juventus didn't really have a look in throughout the 90 minutes, the closest I remember them coming was that deft chip in the 2nd half when Henry gave the ball away.
Arsenal playing some quality football which is always a joy to watch. Its only the first half finished though and it will be tougher in Turin but they have set themselves up nicely and I believe they'll get through Turin and make it into the Semi's.
Am I right in thinking Arsenal have never being in the semi's in the clubs history??
I hope they go on and lift the trophy to be honest.
He's one of the best players in the world without a shadow of a doubt. He has such talent on the ball, so dangerous. I'd put Gilberto man-to-man tight.
