UEFA CUP ...........


Maccabi Haifa - CSKA Moscow

The first leg ended 0-0, it was played in Vladikavkaz, some 1500km from Moscow, so not too much home advantage for the Russians.

I expect CSKA to progress, the score draw is a concern, but less so, on the 1/4 ball asian line, where we get half our stakes back, in the event of a stalemate.

They will have Carvalho fit to start tonight and they should have too much class and be too strong, for a weakened, out of sorts, Maccabi.

Haifa are without 4 players, including captain Yaniv Katan, they are also unable to play at their own stadium and the visitors seem to hold all the cards.

5 points CSKA -1/4 ball 1.92 asian line.

PSG - AEK ATHENS

PSG have been good to us in recent weeks. They sit on a two goal lead and Paul le Guen is sure to rest several starters, as he did in the away tie. This makes little difference in reality, as the replacements are probably "hungrier".


I am sure that the Parisians, will want to keep the run and goals flowing, having won the last 3 , netting 9 goals in the process, a total which seemed impossible, a few weeks ago.


Greek teams are never the best of travellers and if they go a goal behind, the floodgates might open.


4 points PSG -1 ball 2.095 asian line.


Good Luck.
