Now that I have done a football preview, time for a Futbol preview.
Though the UEFA Champions League doesn't start for a few weeks, the group seedings were released and it's seems like fix is in for traditional powerhouses. The only one where it seems that the fix isn't in totally is Group D where Real Madrid and Man City are grouped together, the defending La Liga champs and EPL champs respectively. They both should advance to the knockout stages but when two powerhouses like this are grouped together anything can happen. An upset from a lesser club could cost much more in a group like this one.
As for a favorite to win the UCL title? My pick is selfishly going to be Real Madrid. This is Jose Mourinho's third year as the team's manager and they were unfortunate penalties away from getting to the UCL Final last year. Luka Modric seems to be the big signing during the transfer window so far and he should sure up the midfield. Plus, Cristiano Ronaldo along with Gonzalo Higuain and Karin Benzema ensure that the club still has a lot of fire power. NOW START WINNING SOME MATCHES IN LA LIGA FOR PETE'S SAKE!!!
P.S. Yes, I know the title is a horrible pun. I'm working on worse puns, OK.
