Barcelona has been drawn in the most easiest group of this years Champions League. They have been drawn along with F C Basel, Sporting Lisbon and F C Shakhtar Donetsk. A careful analysis of each of these teams follows…..
Barcelona could not have asked for more. They along with Chelsea got
the easiest groups. I would say Barcelona’s group looks like the
easiest of all. Barcelona is in Group C along with the likes of F C
Basel, Sporting Lisbon and F C Shakhtar Donetsk. The draw looks like a
cake walk for Barcelona but then we should never forget what Wisla did
to us. In contrast to Barcelona, the other Spanish sides were not so
lucky. Real Madrid is placed in a group which could become very tricky
along with Zenit, Juventus and BATE. If Zenit and Arshavin can recreate
some of the magic which made them UEFA cup champions, then that group
surely is destined to see some surprise. Villareal who finished 2nd
last season ahead of Barcelona also got into a messy group along with
Defending champions Manchester United, Celtic and the Danish side
Aalborg BK. Celtic has shown it many a time recently that they are very
capable of competing against the best in Europe. Athletico Madrid is
paired with Liverpool, PSV and Marseille. This is also a potential
trouble some group especially considering the way Liverpool qualified.
Let’s take a look at Barcelona’s opponents in group stage.
