Well for the 20th of October in Group A the Champions League holders Inter Milan will be facing the english team Tottenham. Meanwhile, Twente will be playing german side Werder Bremen. For these two matches, I'd tip Inter Milan to dismantle Tottenham while Werder Bremen could see off the Twente challenge. That said, it could quite easily be Twente earning the 3 points due to the fact that they are having a very good season while Bremen aren't having a brilliant season. Also, Inter and Twente will be at home, granting the two teams even more of an advantage.
Meanwhile, the Group B games of Schalke 04 against Hapoel Tel Aviv and Lyon versus Benfica give some nice games. Despite Schalke's terrible domestic form, they should be able to find 3 points at home against the Israeli club Hapoel Tel Aviv. On the otherhand, Lyon should beat Benfica, as their domesttic league form has surged recently. However, despite that fact as well as Lyon having the home crowd, I would watch this match just to see how things go down. It could be quite a surprise.
Now on to Group C, how about Glasgow Rangers playing against Valencia as Manchester United take on Bursaspor. Rangers will be playing at home, despite this, I could see Valencia taking the 3 points in Scotland. I know, Rangers can definately shut teams down, but Valencia are running relatively high in the Spanish Leauge, a league much better than the Scottish one. Also, despite their recent poor domestic form Manchester United should rack up another 3 points, playing at home against Bursaspor of Turkey. You never know though...
Finally, in Group D the Greek club Panathinaikos will take on Rubin Kazan, in a game i would predict in Pana's advantage, putting together their recent domestic form as well as the home field advantage. The Spanish giants Barcelona meanwhile will be facing Copenhagen in a quite obvious game I would predict as massively going Barca's way at the Camp Nou.
