3 points would be nice but I could definitely see a draw today for Pool.

Why isn't Suarez playing EPL this week?

Anyways, Udinese essentially playing for nothing, IIRC. Liverpool needs those 3 points to advance.

Picked up his 5th yellow of the season in the league against Southampton on Saturday, which means an automatic 1 match ban.

Gotta do some research

[CaribbeanJoseph]

Zenit will more than likely bounce us out, easy last 16 matchup if we get through though

[DDRGuido]

how is Chelsea playing in the Europa league too?

Everyone that finishes third in their CL group drops down to the Europa League and enters at the knockout stage.

Tied in points with PSG, but 2nd overall cuz of GD. It was supposed to be a not so great year for them, but they are playing well.

Raul Meireles
