Anorthosis Famagusa is Cyprus. Think Rangers played them a few seasons ago & they had that baldy lad who used play for Newcastle with them.
I reckon Spartak Moscow will win it out.

Rabotnicki (I think they're Slovakian but not sure) v Bolton Wanderers

Everton v Metalist Kharkiv (Ukranian I think)

Larissa (Greek) v Blackburn Rovers

Aberdeen v Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk (Ukranian)

Tottenham Hotspur v Anorthosis Famagusta (Cypriot) .

Edit: having checked I have found that Rabotnicki are from Macedonia!

Funny seeing Bayern in the UEFA Cup.There are plenty of handy teams in it but Bayern are the obvious ones with Champions league pedigree.

Yeah, Palermo, Rennes, Alkmaar, Villarreal and Atletico are good outsiders.

Villarreal are particularly interesting alright. The only thing about them though is that they may have designs on champions league qualification so they may be concentrating on their league position come February/March. That's always a factor in the UEFA cup. Some clubs don't have squads deep enough to carry through their UEFA cup potential along with a high finish in their domestic league.

Yeah, Palermo 33/1, Rennes 50/1, Alkmaar 22/1, Villarreal 14/1 and Atletico 14/1 are good outsiders.
