UEFA Champions League matches 29/09/2009






Arsenal v Olympiakos, Group H, 19:45 kick off

Fiorentina v Liverpool, Group E 19:45 kick off


In tonight's Champions League action Tuesday 29th September 2009 there 2 games featuring Premier League sides, both with tough qualifying group matches.

In Group H Arsene Wenger's Arsenal take on Olympiakos without Brazilian midfielder Denilson. Denilson made his last appearance for the Gunners on 12th September and since then has been sidelined for 2 months with a small fracture in his back. The injuJustify Fullry was sustained in their 4-3 defeat Eastlands and is no doubt a big loss to Arsene Wenger at this point in the season. A day after their one-nil win against Fulham, Nicklas Bendtner was involved in a minor car accident where he sustained some bruising also keeping him out of this match. Almunia is also out with a chest infection. One boost to the Gunners is getting England star Theo Walcott back after a recovering from a side strain injury.

Liverpool face Fiorentina away in Group E. The Reds are hoping to maintain their 100% in the Champions League Group E and have Spanish striker Fernando Torres in red hot form for this fixture. Liverpool are pretty much at full strength but Benitez will be without anchor man Mascherano (hamstring). Mascherano picked up the injury in training but will be hopeful to get fit for this Sunday's big clash against Chelsea away at Stamford Bridge. Also Benayoun picked up a dead leg against Hull. Fiorentina have no Alberto Gilardino upfront but have ex-Chelsea striker Mutu to lead the line. I wonder if the Saudi prince who has offered £350m for 50% of the Merseysde club will be tuning in...

I reckon Arsenal and Liverpool double, worth a cheeky mid-week flutter.
