Champions League apartments in Manchester and Liverpool

The draw for the group stages of this years (2009/10) Champions League football competition have been relatively kind to both Manchester United and Liverpool FC.

The UEFA Champions League is the biggest, and certainly the most lucrative club competition in world football and probably the most popular. TV audiences are spread across the globe. Barcelona are the current holders of the famous European Cup and are aiming to defend the trophy this season.

Manchester United FC have been drawn in the harder group and will have to play CSKA Moscow of Russia, Besiktas of Turkey and German champions Wolfsburg. Clearly a lot of travelling for the English champions but they will be favourites to progress as winners of their group.

Liverpool FC have an easier group and will play home and away legs versus Lyon, Fiorentina and Debrecen.

When either team plays champions league matches at their respective home grounds (Anfield, Liverpool and Old Trafford, Manchester) accommodation in Manchester and Liverpool (whether it is hotels in Manchester or apartments in Liverpool) is at a premium and books up very quickly.

Liverpool FC play start their group stage programme at home to Debrecen (champions of Hungary) at Anfield on Wednesday 16th September. They play Lyon (of France) in Liverpool on October 20th, Italian side Firentina at Anfield on December 9th.

Manchester United play their Champions League home matches on September 30th, CSKA Moscow November 3rd and Besiktas on November 25th.
