UEFA Cup: 2nd Legs
FreeAnd there are some very interesting ties balancing on a knife-edge, wouldn’t you agree? We have struggling Aston Villa travelling the nightmare journey east to Moscow to face CSKA Moscow whilst knowing they need to score at the home of the Army Men – not the easiest of tasks. We also have Deportivo La Coruna who will have to fight tooth and nail to overcome AaB after their demolition in Denmark. Sampdoria, like Aston Villa, also have a lengthy trip east to face Metalist Kharkiv whilst knowing they have to score. As you can see, it’s going to be some task covering all of these games but as usual, I’ll strive to ensure it’s all correct!
Also, I forgot to mention that the Polish Ekstraklasa starts tomorrow – hurrah!
