No champions league fireworks

23/11/2011 | By More

Not sure if it’s just me, but I’ve found the group stages of the CL this year a little dull. After my racing hiatus I sat down yesterday evening to see some exciting matches, but not a great deal of opportunity. I guessed Man Utd would be keen to win against Napoli, but didn’t bank on such a quick equaliser! I sense the last few matches in the group stages should ignite some fireworks given the way results have panned out so far.

Tonight I’m working on a pre-off trading strategy. There isn’t, generally, a great deal of movement on these matches before the start; Rooney’s omission last night being an exception. But that doesn’t mean there is opportunity. I’ll be doing my best to work the market before the off so I can put some of that to speculative use this evening.

So in the UK we move from the Mancunian challenge to the London challenge. It will be interesting to see if both come to life in the knockout stages, as they seem to have spluttered through the groups. Advantage Spain I’d say at the moment!
