Champions Last 16 1st leg

PHB · 17-02-2008 07:56PM #1

Liverpool v Inter Milan - Inter 1-2 (not sure about the win, but defo get the away goal I think)
*******kos v Chelsea - Chelsea
Roma v Real Madrid - Madrid (high scoring game I think, both defences are ****)
Schalke 04 v FC Porto - Porto

Arsenal v AC Milan - Milan (no idea though really. Both teams have injuries, not sure who is gona play)
Celtic v Barcelona - Barce
Fenerbahce v Sevilla - Sevilla
Lyon v Man Utd - United (Gona stick my head out and say I think we'll win this leg and tie relatively easily. Lyon have been **** this year, not least because their defence just isn't up to it. That said, they have it in them)

In terms of overall, I think what's interesting is how you could easily see a lot of teams just showing up on the night.
However, I would say I'd be surprised to see any of the folllowing win

*******kos
Celtic
Fenerbahce

After that, I think it's well open

Celtic will be tough, great team with a great history... They usually play excellent against Barcelona, especially compared to most other british teams... Hopefully we'll go through, but it definitely wont be easy...

United should also go through, they just have heaps of quality, fantastic young squad...

Arsenal vs Milan- Arsenals losing approach to the FA cup this weekend better be worth it. I personally think this could go either way, a moment of magic from Pirlo/ Adebayor could win the tie.

I reckon Inter will knock out the pool... I just think Inter are due a good european cup run, especially considering their squad. But with liverpool you never know, especially in Europe.

Olymp1akos vs Chelsea- Obviously chelsea are the favourites, but of all the upsets possible i reckon this could be it, olymp1akos played excellently against madrid over 2 legs.

Sevilla should walk Fenerbache. I got fantastic odds on Sevilla to win the CL just after they lost to arsenal, so theyll be a team ill root for throughout the tournament.

Porto should edge Schalke.

Madrid vs Roma- should be a very good game, Madrid will outscore Roma, but there should be loads of goals!

There are 3 near certainties in life
1.Death
2. Celtic wont lose at home in Europe
3. Celtic wont win away in Europe

1-1 in soctland 3-0 barca in spain

Looking forward to it too EB and my shift cycle finishes on Tuesday so Wednesday night should be good.

Only I'm living in Ayrshire (Rangers country) and you'd be surprised how hard it is to see Celtic games here.

Must check up on "Irish" pubs up the road or something. Or maybe head up to Glasgow.

Jesus, I'm rooting for Barca now, cause if they win, maybe I could be immortal like I've always suspected?

A Dub in Glasgo · 17-02-2008 11:03PM

Looking forward to this - I have a ticket for Wednesday night which is amazing considering I gave up my season ticket 2 years ago.

BTW, Barcelona were the only side to beat Celtic at home in the CL format. Henrik Larsson returning to Celtic Park to score.

kraggy · 17-02-2008 11:14PM

Hey Dub in Glasgo

If you come across a spare ticket on Wednesday for some reason, give me a PM as I'm only down the road and can be up in a jiffy.

Fat chance I know but ya can't blame me for chancing it! lol...

I really think that Celtic are close to finally making that next important step of making it to the next phase of the CL. If not this year, def next year or year after.

Strachan's building up a nice squad and with a couple of more signings over next year or two, we can break into the next tier up.

Also, Helix would get much better odds than evens if he wagered with a bookies instead...all that said if you decide to take up the bet Helix I'd like a bit of that action too:D
