In a match with various underlying themes (Manchester United redeeming their 2009 Final loss & Barcelona reclaiming their spot at the top of Europe), both sides were aware of the historical ramifications of this game.

These 2 sides know it each other very well not only because of encountering each other in league play, but their cities are roughly only 30 miles apart. However, FC Porto remain clearly above and beyond when it comes to the bookmakers odds in this tie; but can SC Braga pull off yet another upset?

Will it be Manchester United again or a Schalke surprise?

UEFA's disciplinary committee will not suspend Iniesta for what was possibly a deliberate yellow card picked up against Shakhtar during the 1st leg QF match. Several months ago Mourinho and Co. had action taken against them after a similar report was presented by UEFA officials.  

Iniesta (Right) will play.

The UEFA Champions League is only providing more reasons for why many believe it to be the premiere soccer tournament in the world. The club versus country argument is an old and long one and I wouldn't bring it any justice by attempting to summarize it, so I'll leave it at that or better yet allow you fine folks to discuss it via the comment section. This season we have ourselves one semi-final in which many expected and another which many didn't.
