Going from top to bottom then, I haven't been impressed with either Milan or Celtic so far in game 1. Milan are 1.45 which is possibly a little on the short side if they have as many injuries as purported to be. Atletico are playing some nice stuff this season and should see off Zenit but again you couldn't be tempted into it. Austria-Porto pass; you'd fancy Porto on the win but I haven't seen enough of Vienna to justify anything with any certainty. Barce v Ajax should be a very good game. Barcelona are quite obviously heavy favourites but Ajax have been stringing together some nice performances, but it will need a huge defensive ask to keep the Spanish giants out for long periods.
Chelsea-Basel and it's a home sider all the way, although 1.36 gives you nothing. Marseille v Arsenal does interest me. Personally, and although Arsenal are playing well, French sides can have the ability to frustrate and I wouldn't be surprised if this ends in a draw. Marseille haven't won a league game in two mind so they're not exactly flushed with over-confidence. Napoli-Dortmund could be anything depending on the mentalities of the two coaches I guess. Benitez would be looking for a tight controlled game you'd guess and Dortmund may even be happy playing into the hands of this, away from home. Draw maybe? Could very well be.
A lot of people are laying Schalke tonight, and against PAOK you could certainly accrue the evidence to suggest that they may be right. However, people may be forgetting that they did beat PAOK and although they were all over the shop in that match, they went on to beat Leverkusen 2-0 and Mainz 1-0. Two clean sheets in two games from a purported shite defence? It's not bad. Steaua haven't lost a match in FIFTEEN games, but I'm not quite sure what that tells you as you're talking the Romanian league and friendlies primarily.
My suggestion tonight would be a QPR win against Brighton. 2.05 here (may be higher/lower now depending) and I can't see any reason not to back them.
