  A symmetrical binary mixture AB that exhibits a critical temperature T_{cb}
of phase separation into an A-rich and a B-rich phase in the bulk is considered
in a geometry confined between two parallel plates a distance D apart. It is
assumed that one wall preferentially attracts A while the other wall
preferentially attracts B with the same strength (''competing walls''). In the
limit $D\to \infty$, one then may have a wetting transition of first order at a
temperature T_{w}, from which prewetting lines extend into the one phase region
both of the A-rich and the B-rich phase. It is discussed how this phase diagram
gets distorted due to the finiteness of D% : the phase transition at T_{cb}
immediately disappears for D<\infty due to finite size rounding, and the phase
diagram instead exhibit two two-phase coexistence regions in a temperature
range T_{trip}<T<T_{c1}=T_{c2}. In the limit D\to \infty T_{c1},T_{c2} become
the prewetting critical points and T_{trip}\to T_{w}.
  For small enough D it may occur that at a tricritical value D_{t} the
temperatures T_{c1}=T_{c2} and T_{trip} merge, and then for D<D_{t} there is a
single unmixing critical point as in the bulk but with T_{c}(D) near T_{w}. As
an example, for the experimentally relevant case of a polymer mixture a phase
diagram with two unmixing critical points is calculated explicitly from
self-consistent field methods.
