Manchester United to Face Chelsea for EPL Title, Why Should Barcelona care?

Tomorrow afternoon, Manchester United will be looking to effectively clinch the EPL title against fellow Champions League contenders Chelsea.  Tomorrow's match will be a hard fought battle and it could rarely wear out some Man Utd players.  Chelsea play a stagnant, physical brand of futbol that could    cause Barca's complete contrast of play confuse Man U a little.  I know this is being hopeful, but I sincerely believe that a strong effort by Chelsea could be an advantage to Barca.  I see two potential scenarios playing out that may be positive for Barca:

  1. A Man Utd win would clinch the title and set off a day or so of massive celebration.  Hopefully there will be a win hangover that will diminish the tenacity of Man U.
  2. A Man Utd loss would shift a lot of pressure on Man U in that if they lose to Barca on Tuesday they may be on the path to win no hardware if Chelsea overtakes them.  They may play tight in front of a nervous Old Tratford crowd.
Trust me, I know these are all views of Barca hopeful and they aren't driven much in reality.  But hey, I can still cross my fingers can't I.
