Well, my scheduled matchday 3 and 4 review has already been passed, so I thought that I would just talk about how each group is going and who will advance from this point in the tourney.

Group A is going right down to the wire.  You have FC Porto with the lead.  Then there is Marseile.  Then, it is last year's runner-up, Liverpool.  They must win their final two matches against the aformentioned two clubs or they will be out a little early this season.  Do I think they will, yes I do, Steven Gerrard will lead his team to the RO16.

Group B has very good teams in it.  Every matchday, you see something that suprises you in some way in this group.  At the top is Chelsea.  Then Rosenborg, followed by Schalke 04 and Valencia.  Valencia are in deep trouble.  A quarterfinalist last year, they need to win both matches to get into the RO16.  But I think they can win out, but they will have to actually come to play this time.

Group C has had very good moments, but I will just give the order of placement.  First is Real Madrid, second is Lazio, then Olympiacos, then the German chokers of Werder Bremen.

Group D is easily this year's best group.  On top is last year's champ, AC Milan.  Then you have suprising side Shaktar Donestk.  Third is Celtic and fourth is Benfica.  Celtic have been catchign up in the last two matchday, and I am very confident that my prediction will come true.  AC Milan number 1, and Celtic number two in this group.

Group E is full of great teams.  On top is Barcelona, who are almost assured a spot in the RO16, barring a total collapse.  Second is Rangers, and then a point behind is Lyon.  Then in fourth and pointless is Vfb Stuttgart.  This will be a great race for the second spot.  This is probabaly the best race left in the UCL.

Group F is just about locked up.  Roma and Man. U are on top, and they will stay there.

Group G features three good teams, and one wild card team.  In first is Inter, then Fenerbache.  They are followed by PSV Eindhoven and CSKA Moscow.  I think the way things have been going that Fenerbache will hold on to second and advance to the RO16 for the first time in a while. 

Group H is also just about over, Sevilla and Arsenal are easily on top and will advance to the RO16.

Now, I will list the sixteen teams that I think will advance to the RO16.

1. FC Porto

2. Liverpool

3. Chelsea

4. Rosenborg

5. Real Madrid

6. Lazio

7. AC Milan

8. Celtic

9. Bareclona

10. Lyon

11. Manchester United

12. Roma

13. Inter Milan

14. Fenerbache

15. Arsenal

16. Sevilla

Those are my predictions as of now, let me know what you think.
