Inter have a two goal advantage from first leg, quality is on their side, and they will be able to rest some standard players in this duel. Ludogorets is not so weak opponent, despite defeat of 0-2 on their stadium, they will not surrender, but reality is cruel, they simply not have enough quality to qualify into next round. Wanderson, Swierczok and Marcelinho will be in attack, but it's never easy task to score a goal against Inter, despite the fact that host will be without their first goalkeeper Handanovic. After final whistle of the referee I expect equal result and match without winner.

It was a dismal, damaging result and performance for Watford and Sanchez Flores - only confirmed by the sight of both manager and chief executive Duxbury shaking their heads in disbelief once Southampton had overturned a one-goal deficit at St Mary's on Saturday. Sanchez Flores has been unfortunate to be without injured talisman Troy Deeney, an inspiration, leader and spearhead on the pitch who has played only 34 minutes under the manager since having knee surgery in August.
Chelsea v BournemouthIt is five defeats in a row now for Bournemouth, and it is hard to see that run ending here.

Man of the Match - Niall McGinnAlthough it was a Celtic victory it was the Aberdeen players who caught the eye on an afternoon where silky football was definitely not on the agenda.

They have stabilised the team a lot. I think Klopp's a big part of that," Richards, who is in India as part of City's trophy tour, said in an interview. And what I like a lot about Liverpool is that they are pushing City to be greater. When you win things it's because normally someone's pushing you. Healthy rivalry with Liverpool can only be good for Man City.
Given four Liverpool players are in the top six, we're not convinced. Also, where's Raheem Sterling?! Disgusting if true.

Getafe, on the other hand, are widely regarded as ugly but effective.
