First place teams are decent size favorites in every single match, interesting.

According to the books, smallest favorite is Barcelona vs. Man City at about 2:1.
Yeah, well, you know, that's just like, your opinion man

Chelsea are the favorites, but Galatasaray is the team of upsets. If they fix their defensive problems by then, who knows what might happen. Cimbom gogo!

Let's be realistic Galatasaray lucked out against Juventus. Sure you can pull that trick once against a superior team but twice won't happen.

Man City favorites against Barcelona, are you kidding me? Sure they've got a shot, but favorites? lol.

Anyway, Dutch teams got pretty good draws for the EL for a change at least.

I agree, Barcelona must be favourites.

The second group stage game against Bayern wasn't really THAT impressive by City, Bayern played abysmal in the second half, one of their worst performances of the entire year. City have a chance, but there is no way they are favoured.

He is a very old monster now Mensol. Plus, he will be crying his eyes out before game starts in both legs and be too emotional to do anything during the game

I have got nothing against Galatasaray, but to be honest I think Pande would be a lot more scared if Chelsea had to go up against Juve.

Galatasaray have been punching above their weight now in European cups for 2 decades. Saying they pulled a trick once is funny. This wasn't their first upset and it probably won't be their last.

I think i am going to bet money on Leverkusen and Schalke. Juicy odds


wasted money. I fear theyll get stomped seeing how underwhelming their performance was against big teams like chelsea and ManU. They lack the confidence. They also play kinda bad in Bundesliga. I mean Leverkusen seems to be doing alright but look at how they got their points: luck and bad referee calls.

You also said Yilmaz would be good enough for Chelsea so I doubt you're objective in this. And on a field like that it's just a dice roll who wins.

And no they haven't been puchig above their weight in the CL the last few years. 3 years ago they didn't qualify and last year they were in a group with United, Cluj and Braga. This year they only punched above their weight against Juventus which is a good result but still..

How about Schalke in the last season? No one give us chance because they beat Arsenal in Emirates...

I'm just saying that we arent pushovers.

Swansea City - Napoli

Not that bad, but it could be better

Juve going again in Turkey ahah

Very good draws for Lazio and Fiorentina (Ludogorets, Esbjerg)

Nedved's reaction was priceless.

Juventus will definitely like Trabzon.

Wouldn't it still be Man City? Chelsea lost to Bayern in the UEFA Super Cup on August 30, and Bayern's next loss was to Man City last week.

No. The UFWC rules aren't counting the wins based on penalties, as the penalties only determine the winner of a trophy, not a winner of the match. Bayern - Chelsea was still a 2-2 draw, and draws allow the title holder to retain it.
