As Berlin gets prepared for tomorrow's Champions League final between Barcelona and Juventus, Ger spoke to Graham Hunter live from the city ahead of the game this evening.

Hunter expects a "cannier Juventus" because of Giorgio Chiellini's injury. The Italian's absence will perhaps result in a "less open game".

Andrea Pirlo may be pressed by the Barcelona midfield in a similar way the Spanish did to him in Euro 2012, which worked successfully. Marchisio, Pogba and Vidal may have enough to help the veteran flourish on the Berlin pitch.

Barcelona's defence has struggled in recent weeks from set plays which Hunter feels may play into the Italian's hands tomorrow night. The first goal will be crucial tomorrow night due to the styles of both teams.

When asked to predict the result, Hunter said he would not be surprised if Barcelona won 2-1 or if it finished 2-2 and went to penalties.
