Both Barcelona and Manchester United had successful campaigns to reach the 2010-2011 UEFA Champions League final. An analysis of key stats from their 12 matches shows: 1) United had a higher win conversion rate but Barcelona had more shots on target. 2) United scored more goals away from home while Barcelona's goals were more evenly split between home and away. 3) Scoring the first goal and leading at halftime was important for both teams, though United won all matches when scoring first while Barcelona lost one. 4) Overall the stats suggest the final could go either way, so no clear favorite is evident from the data alone.
