Real Madrid v Dynamo Kiev
-I suspect the Putos will win this one. Though those Russkie/Ukie teams can be very surprising at times. Depends on how ed up Real defence is. Roberto Carlos is out, isn't it? 2-0 Real
Steaua Bucuresti v Lyon
-Walk over for Lyon. 3-0
Benfica v Man Utd
-Man U scum will want revenge, and are in form right now. I suspect a 1-0, or 2-1 Man U scum score, because it's just not the same without RvN
Celtic v FC Copenhagen
-Possibly most entertaining match of the night. Celtic are on form on SPL and had done well against Man U scum on matchday 1. Copenhagen no one really knows about, but those Danes come up with upsets out of nowhere. Though it's their first CL outing, and they may suck, but I think it'll be a 2-2 draw
CSKA Moscow v Hamburg SV
-Hamburg really needs this one to get back on track. I can see a lot of fluid football. 2-1 Hamburg
Arsenal v FC Porto
-Arse can use this game to get going because they aren't doing so good in EPL right now. But if their CL form carried over from last year, I think Porto has no chance. 2-0 Arse
AEK Athens v Anderlecht
-1-1 draw. Both teams suck. The Greek teams aren't surprise package that they were 2-3 yrs ago. Anderlecht chokes on CL stage last few years also. (And they don't have Kompany no more)
Lille v AC Milan
-Lille keeps coming back. Was very impressed with them last season. Will depend on whether Milan can somehow break down Lille, because this French team plays really tight and well organized defence. I suspect a poucher's goal by Inzaghi will give Milan a 1-0 win |

I dunno... I just got the feeling that once someone scores a goal, both teams will go for broke because they need the 3 points if they are to have any chance to move to second round, or even make euro cup as 3rd place. |
