UEFA Champions' League Prediction Competition 2005/2006

It's back, soccer fans, the 2005/2006 edition of the Champions League tipping competition! As in the past, the first group phase you will predict the order of teams. If you have a top2 team in the top2, you get 1 point, if the team is ranked accordingly, you get a bonus point. If you predict the 3rd placed team correctly, you get another bonus point. Here are the groups followed by my own prediction. Please go by my example and add ranking numbers in stead of ordering the teams. You can simply copy-paste the groups listed below and add the numbers at the front. Enjoy!

Group A
Juventus
Rapid Wien
Bayern (Munchen)
Club Brugge

Group B
Thun
Sparta (Praha)
Ajax (Amsterdam)
Arsenal (London)

Deadline (as always has been, fwiw) is kickoff of the first game. And that is next Tuesday at 8:45 pm European, which is 2:45 pm east coast and 11:45 am west coast.

Group Phase Update
The group phase stage finished about a week ago. That means the first scores of the 2005/2006 edition are in. Here are the top contenders after the group phase. (Reminder, people can still jump in for the next stages, but will simply score a zero in the group phase round). The draws for the second round will be done later on, meaning the predictions for the second round will have to wait a bit. On to the standings now!

Group phase standings / Overall standings
01. BreizhManu - 29 pts (out of 40)
02. Daedalus - 28 pts
03t Cards4erver - 27 pts
03t KeyserSoze - 27 pts
05t ISiddiqui - 25 pts
05t Scholes - 25 pts
07. atatange1 - 24 pts
08. BillyNYC - 23 pts
09t Katon - 22 pts
09t TripleF - 22 pts
11t Alf - 20 pts
11t Critch - 20 pts
11t MIJB#19 - 20 pts
11t Northwood_DK - 20 pts
16t bhlloy - 19 pts
15t Butter of 69 - 19 pts

As a long time Glasgow Rangers fan I'd like to forward a huge "up yours" to all the non-believers who had us listed at 3rd or lower and wrote off our chances of reaching the knockout stages

Considering the dismantling that Artmedia gave Celtic in the qualifying stages, I don't think it was out of the realm that they would have done it again to Rangers and left them in the cold.

But good for them. Although I'd be pretty shocked if they make it past the round of 16.

But good for them. Although I'd be pretty shocked if they make it past the round of 16.

Totally agree, despite predicting Rangers to finish first, I would have been happy with 3rd and a UEFA Cup place, but half expected 4th. Artmedia turned out to be a fairly poor team, despite their win at Porto. They were outshot something like 23-3 in that game but won 3-2, the kind of thing that normally only happens in FM/CM. (I may be bitter here, my Brazil team lost 4-1 to Angola despite outshooting them 34-4).

No chance we get past the Round of 16, if we draw Barcelona it could get quite ugly.

Okay, time for the second round predictions. The number of points to be won for predictors is 2 per correct winner, counting up to a max of 16 for the final rankings. Everybody is free to join, even if you missed out on the group phase preedictions. Okay, enough blah, here are the matchups (first mentioned team plays first game at home):

Chelsea - Barcelona
Real Madrid - Arsenal (London)
Werder (Bremen) - Juventus
Bayern (Munchen) - AC Milan
PSV (Eindhoven) - Lyon
Ajax (Amsterdam) - Internazionale
Benfica - Liverpool
Rangers - Villareal

And as an example, my own predicted winners:
Barcelona
Real Madrid
Juventus
AC Milan
PSV (Eindhoven)
Ajax (Amsterdam)
Liverpool
Villareal

Little bump for the second round predictions. The games won't be for another week or five, but it doesn't hurt to bring this back to the attention to get a few predictions in from people who missed the update in December.

If I want to change my picks, should I edit my original post, or post again?

I'm pretty sure there is no editing allowed, i'm not so sure about actually changing picks now.

In the past I used to post that picks stand as they are posted and that clarifications should go in following posts. Edited posts are never allowed. So unless you have a good reason to change your picks, I think I shouldn't allow changes. (Arsenal sucking recently is not a good reason, especially since they have a history of doing terrible in the knock-out stages. )
