Spot on.

No one has said it's an easy group mate, personally I'm just getting behind the team

Positive Mental Attitude an' all that.

I honestly think we'll struggle. I just hope we play well. Might be like the A. Madrid game. Play well and lose 1-0. Happy to be there although I'll no' be there.

Seven points will get you through, in my opinion.

Benfica's away record is terrible too and if we can get a win in the opening game then that gives us a fighting chance. Russians don't travel too well, either. Let's hope we can do well in the first game, that'll tell us where exactly the team is.

We'll win on wednesday. We will get 7 points from the group.

Henrik, just saw your post mate. Ive said 7 since the draw was made.

Benfica's away record is terrible too

----------------

2 away wins and a draw at Old Trafford (which they could have easily won) in the Group Stage last season mate............

2 home wins & a home draw I take it?

I said this in a post the other day it's a bonus we are in the CL but on paper we are up against it, who knows but our defence and players off form Benfica home or away is going to be tough.

I mean how can we compete when look at what we have spent ? Our defence can't keep a clean sheet against bottom of the league side St Johnstone,

Anyway we can all live and hope and I as much as any other fan would love to see us do well in this group, but I live on planet earth not planet make believe

Nah, a draw in moscow, hmp.

Since our ahem, backdoor entry into Europe last year we have actually played fairly well against Euro sides. Struggled with SPL rockets though. So there is slight hope.

7 will get you through because Barca' will run away with it.

2 draws and 1 win I reckons.

Against Barca stick Vic on the peno spot. Theyll never get through

and they will have very clear sinuses

3-0 home wins against Benfica are the norm for us, i expect the same again.

3 home wins and a 4-4 draw at the Nou Camp.

Jinky it's beautiful on this planet make-believe.

But in the real world I think HMP could be right.

Who we missing?

Samwise, Ledders, Kayal, Stokes? Any more?

Dukey, Too much and you get irritable eye syndrome. The cants will be blind..yippee!!

Benfica not sell their two best players?

Queb-

Hopefully you'll see how kak my prediction levels are, hopefully.

Yeah, they sold Javí Garcia to City and Axel Witsel to Zenit.

Ok here is my predictions

Celtic Benfica 1-1

Barca S Moscow 3-1

S Moscow Celtic 2-0

Benfica Barca 1-2


Celtic Barca 1-3

Barca Celtic 3-0


Benfica Celtic 2-0


Celtic S Moscow 1-1


Barca and S Moscow to go through and Benfica finishing 3rd.........now I hope I am wrong but this is how I see it

I was at the Benfica Basle game last year

Dull as a wet weekend

But the beer is good and Benfica were pash.
Nice eagle though
