    Roma v Shakhtar Donetsk
    -even match up both should win home legs, whoever does better away goes through
    AC Milan v Tottenham Hotspur
    -Good draw for Spurs, they should pull the upset
    Valencia v Schalke
    -Tight match up but Valencia wins
    Inter Milan v Bayern Munich
    -I like Bayern for the revenge upset from last year, still tight though
    Lyon v Real Madrid
    -Lyon will get raped, Madrid got knocked out by them last year, not this time.
    Arsenal v Barcelona
    -RIP Arsenal
    Marseille v Manchester United
    -If Marseille can do good at home they got a shot
    FC Copenhagen v Chelsea

    None of these teams will advance. I see no way anything will happen.

    1 Inter 2.00, X 3.25, 2 Bayern 3.50: As of now I would say Bayern has the edge but the situation might change a little by the time of the match. Everyone knows Inters problems with injuries this season, and the most recent one is Sneijer who will be out until the end of Januari. When that situation clears up we will see a more solid team. And we are likely to make some moves in the transfer window, aquire a central defender (maybe Ranocchia) and something in the offensive department.

    But the big question is: Will Rafa Benitez still be the manager of Inter in 2011?
    If we get a new manager things will change...

    Too early to say. There are gonna be different teams in 3 months. Last year it happened to Inter, they were playing really average in the first rounds just to pick their form up in the knockout stages and win the CL

    Maybe the dumbest post ever. Got to love people who pay no attention whatsoever to what they post. Just makes his 1 post to get his points.


    Anyways, there are some very interesting match-ups. Arsenal going to get an early knockout.

    Tottenham vs Milan should be entertaining to watch. And of course the rematch of the finals from last year should be enjoyable as well.
