Well interesting matchday 5, Barca loses to AJAX! of all teams, Basel again beats Chelsea and the drama continues on, I wasnt surprised that Basel won but I would of thought Chelsea would of won. Even though Barca had some injuries I still dont think they should of lost the game, they got a good enough bench that the should of won in my opinon. I am sure Barca will bounce back and rape some teams for awhile to remind people how good they still are. Here are the standings though.
1. Curt - 54
2. Jeremy - 37
3. Mat - 26
4. Adam - 25
5. Travis- 22
6. Mike- 21
7. Sid and Knox - 20
8. Robbie - 15
9. Ryan - 13
Matchday 5 coming up some teams have clinched the next stage but for some teams its do or die now. Dortmund needs a win this matchday to have some sort of life line. Which brings me the match to watch this round is Dortmund v Napoli, the winner of the match will most likely move on to the next stage. Another good match to keep your eye on is my Man U v Leverkusen, if Leverkusen wins and Shaktar wins, it will open this group wide open, but I think Man U will pull out a win or a draw. Upsets that could happend in this matchday is Zenit v Atletico, on a scale player v player, Atletico is way better but they are playing in Russia, which makes Zenit the favourite according to Vegas, so watch out for that game, another match to watch out is Basel v Chelsea, Chelsea are going to Basel but I dont think Basel will beat Chelsea but who knows. Heres the predictions and projected points.
Basel v Chelsea - 1-0 for Chelsea
Steaua v Schalke - 1 -0 for Schalke
Arsenal v Marseille - 2-0 for Arsenal
Dortmund v Napoli - 2-1 for Dortmund
Zenit v Atletico - 1-1
Porto v Vienna - 2-0 for Porto
Ajax v Barca - 3-1 for Barca
Celtic v AC Milan - 2-1 for Milan
Leverkusen v Man U - 1-0 for Man U
Shakhtar v Sociedad - 3-0 for Shakhtar
Juventus v Copenhagen - 2-0 for Juventus
Real Madrid v Galatasaray - 2-0 for Real Madrid
Anderlecht v Benfica - 2-1 for Benfica
PSG v Olympiakos - 3-2 for PSG
CSKA v Bayern Munich - 1-0 for Bayern
Man City v Plzen - 4-0 for Man City
Projected Points
Adam - 3
Curt - 7
Jeremy - 10
Mat - 4
Mike - 6
Robbie - 3
Ryan - 3
