Re: Uefa Cup 5/6 Dec

Red Star v Bolton

Bolton have set the premiership as thier priority and that is clear. They did not use Anelka or Diouf in their games against Bayern and Aris (used as subs v Aris) and they may think that this is a game too many nowadays that they are trying to go up the table in the league.
By no means they will go to Belgrade to lose, but I see Red Star having the advantage here. Bolton need the win, a draw and they need a specific combination of results to get through a defeat and they are out. It will take an exceptional performance to win at Belgrade and I don't see it coming.


Aris v Braga

My team stood tall at Bolton the other day, had a great time there except of course for the 93rd minute equaliser. Still a draw v Braga will see Aris through if Bolton don't win at Belgrade. Team has two consecutive defeats for the league (lost to a late own goal against AEK on Sunday) but still, uefa cup is very important and should have a good game. Disadvantage will be tiredness as the players are not used to playing twice a week while a certain plus is the strength of their home ground were they have very good results in European competitions taking into consideration the level of the team.
