Champions League Travel Guide
Group A: Barcelona, Chelsea, Werder Bremen, Levski Sofia
Barca and Chelsea meet yet again in the group stages of the competition, and the duo are clear favourites for further qualification from Group A.
Group B: Inter Milan, Bayern Munich, Sporting Lisbon, Spartak Moscow
The German and Italian champions meet in Group B, but Sporting and Spartak will surely do their best to hinder the Milan and Munich duo to advance to the knock out stages.
Group C: Liverpool, PSV Eindhoven, Bordeaux, Galatasaray
European Champions of 2005 Liverpool travel to Holland, France and Turkey for the group stages this year.
Group D: Valencia, Roma, Olympiakos, Shakhtar Donetsk
Tough Spanish, Italian and Greek competition for Champions League fresh-men Shakhtar Donetsk.
Group E: Real Madrid, Lyon, Steaua Bucharest, Dynamo Kiev
A difficult draw for the galacticos from Madrid with a visit to defending French champions Lyon aswell as two tough Eastern European trips.
Group F: Manchester United, Celtic, Benfica, FC Copenhagen
Debutants Copenhagen face tough competition with trips to Manchester, Lisbon and Glasgow.
Group G: Arsenal, Porto, CSKA Moscow, Hamburg
Arsenal are looking to bring home the cup after last year’s near-success, but Porto, CSKA Moscow or Hamburg stand in their way in the group stages.
Group H: AC Milan, Lille, AEK Athens, Anderlecht
Probably the easiest draw for all the top European clubs for AC Milan, but will the scandals at home shake them up in Europe?
