In the Latest Soccer News: It would be a good idea to review the Joelstradamus' picks for the first leg this week during Champions League play. Aspiring to attain a prophetic or book-makers level, it was important that Joelstradamus got off on the right foot, which he did, tallying a 3-1 record. His results and scores were perfect for the Barcelona/Lyon 1-1 and FC Porto/Athletic Madrid (draw) matches. Arsenal did defeat AS Roma 1-0, but he predicted a 3-1. His failure for the game was the Chelsea and Inter Milan match.

 

On Tuesday's games, Joelstradamus struck out on a grand scale with the Manchester United and Inter Milan match picking Inter 2-0 but resulted in a 0-0 draw in Milan. Manchester United is virtually impossible to beat at home and will have Central defender Vidic at his disposal at Old Trafford. Inter Milan needs to pull a rabbit out of their hat as they face Man U and down a goal in aggregate. Thanks, redoranje for the correction. Inter Milan will face a tough Manchester United at Old Trafford  and must provide a more dynamic attack as Man United will maintain their steady organization.

 

With a good start to predictions, Nostradamus has secured three possible correct series predictions as three of the teams still have a chance to win in the series. Barcelona plays at home against Lyon, and Arsenal boast a one goal lead as they travel to Rome. FC Porto is heading home to play Athletic Madrid and should have the advantage to advance.

 

In Wednesday's match-ups, Joelstradamus envisioned an upset of major proportions such as Bayern Munich's punking of Sporting Lisbon 5-0. Predicting that Bayern would win the game due to their aerial ability and height, Joelstradamus was perplexed by the incredible Bayern display as they thrashed Lisbon. Bayern Munich was struggling and had bored spectators to sleep with their predictable offense. Bayern has stepped up big all season in European competition and did not disappoint. Joelstradamus selected the correct result just the wrong score line.

 

The Chelsea and Juventus prediction of 1-1 was a disappointment as Chelsea won at Stanford Bridge 1-0. Chelsea showed more in the game utilizing their pace and fitness to their advantage. Juventus began to improve in the second half but was unable to equalize. Although Joelstradamus had predicted that Liverpool would win the series, his wise words of "coaching and discipline will prevail in the end" culminated in the first series game as Liverpool won 1-0 against Real Madrid at home. Liverpool heads home with a goal advantage. They will utilize their counter attack and 4-5-1 formation to perfection as they advance to the next round.

 

Joelstradamus' intuition failed as he preferred Panathinaikos 2-1 against Villareal at home. The result ended in a 1-1 draw and still appears favorable to Panathinaikos to advance as originally predicted just in a reverse outcome.  Villareal concedes goals like Paris Hilton goes through boyfriends. Advantage Panathinaikos!!!
