Porto - Arsenal
AC Milan - Manchester United
...............
nice draw ...
Barca will have no problem beating Stuttgart home & away with ease so that's a guaranteed qualifier .
Real should beat Lyon although Olympique had the much superior head to head through out the last couple of years i don't even recall us beating them even in the games @ home (? ) .. however things are different now but a lot can happen between now & February , Lisandro Lopez & Bastos are the 2 most dangerous men so our defense should be on full alert .. nice home coming for Benziza and very nice words from Aulas who clearly consider the kid as his own son. Real win
Bordeaux could do what Lyon failed to do in the last couple of years, Blanc stocks will go through the roof and def. he will be moving to a bigger club in the summer , Bordeaux go through IF GOURCUFF IS FIT
Inter-Chelsea a tasty 0-0 draw and 1-1 draw one team will go through aggregate , if Chelsea don't pull their fingers soon Mo could pull this especially if Sneijder is fit otherwise Inter are just plain ordinary .
B Munich - Fiorentina ... the Bavarians have a stronger squad but their weakness (Defense ) is Viola strength and vise versa i still expect the Bavarians to make it , it will be high scoring games
CSKA - Seville ... inconsistent Seville have the upper hand but beware of the rising East European club ..
Porto-Arsenal ... Arsenal no doubt , Porto Qualified through the weakness of the group .
AC Milan - United ... Becks got his wish , pretty hard to tell but SAF has the experience not the players.. Leo have some powers in the form of rejuvenated Dinho.. United will win this
