The Predictor: R16, 15-16 March

We’ll be honest, Swaz is a little despondent after results went against him last time out. But a new week brings a clean slate…

Ajax v Benfica (first leg: 2-2)

It’s all up in the air after last week, I don’t know what I’m doing. It’s not good. But anyway, let’s not mess about: Benfica have got to go the Johan Cruyff Arena, which is an intimidating place to go (I know, I’ve been there). I think Ajax will have too much for them.

Prediction: 3-1

Manchester United v Atlético Madrid (first leg: 1-1)

This has got penalties written all over it. And United are notoriously bad at penalties. But I’m going to say United to win on penalties, because they’re due one. But hang on, will Atletico concede two in normal time? You see, these are my internal conflicts now, my battles.

Prediction: 2-2

Juventus v Villarreal (first leg: 1-1)

Juventus have got a couple of players back from injury – and they’re at home, so you’ve got to take that into account. I think Juventus will win, that’s my point. Shall we go 2-0? I feel like Villarreal could score though. Well, evidently they can, because they did last time. Will it be 2-1? No…

Prediction: 2-0

LOSC v Chelsea (first leg: 0-2)

In the first leg, Lille’s clearest chance was Antonio Rüdiger spooning it over his own shoulder. But you know, they’re at home, they might get a penalty or something – I don’t want to completely floor them.

Prediction: 1-3

8-9 March: round-up

Bayern München v Salzburg
Result: 7-1
Swaz: 3-1

Liverpool v Internazionale
Result: 0-1
Swaz: 2-0

Manchester City v Sporting CP
Result: 0-0
Swaz: 4-0

Real Madrid v Paris Saint-Germain
Result: 3-1
Swaz: 1-2

No one saw 7-1, come on. Inter annoyed me a little bit – great goal though. And City really let me down. And I’ll be completely honest, I did not expect Real Madrid to mug off PSG like that.
