Peoples thoughts on the draw? Which two from each group do you think will go through?

I'm going for:

Bayern Munchen
Man City
Inter
CSKA
Man Utd
Benfica
Real
Lyon
Chelsea
Leverkusen
Borrusia
Marseille
Shakthar
Zenit
Barca
Milan

In short I think the shock exits will be Arsenal and Porto.  Borrusia are VERY VERY good - a lot better than Bayern; Marseille will edge a weak Arsenal.

Arsenal are 1-2 with skybet to qualify on oddschecker. I will back that with you if u like?

Just assume they will buy 2/3 players this week and get a minimum of 7pts at home, meaning probably 3 points away will be enough- skybets price does seem a little out of line

They are also 4-9 Man City to qualify which is a standout. If only they laid a bet

1-2 Arsenal stood out to me too.  I would say any top half prem team would be at least that short to get out of that group.  I was hoping City would have drifted to win CL given that group but they seem to be about the same price.  Think 14/1 e/w is really good value.
