I know we look at our own clubs but the draw of the round for me is Bayern Munich and Milan. Two traditionally big clubs with 10 European Cups between them.
Sure Chelsea and Barcelona is big game and last years antics should spice that up again and Madrid v Arsenal is a big game also but the Munich v Milan game stands out for me.
Others may disagree but that's their perrogative.

Villarreal are a fucking good side.........they'll murder the H*ns. They would give Chelsea a good game too and, frankly, if Chelsea were in Real Betis form they would get humped!
Barca want blood! It will be a good match, there will be a lot of passion and intensity.
Hard to pick a winner.

I agree, the tie of the round, without a doubt, is Bayern v Milan
However, as a Chelsea supporter, I'm more interested in how Barca fare between now and February. I know after last year there may be a little bad blood between the two sides, but I hope both clubs go out and play good football and may the best team win.

It's a 50-50 game in my opinion and on current form maybe the best two sides in Europe. It's substance against style and the former usually prevails although as I said it's 50/50 for me.
I'll take Bayern to topple Milan and Arsenal to edge Madrid and I'll also take Liverpool to come out on top against Benfica provided that we come away from their place with a draw or only a one goal deficit.
