With or without Ribery, Bayern do look like the best side, most respectable one, among above mentioned teams.
I believe that Germans will confirm their fighting spirit one more time and try to forget surprising absence from CL, by winning this cup.
On the other hand, we witnessed the different approach of well known teams, mostly from Italy, when games in this cup, no matter level or opponent, were clearly victimized for domestic leagues matches.
Also, the German teams didn't show anything in last
Uefa Cup, so the offered price for Bayern to win the Cup, is far from any value (for me) since they'll be eager to get involved in next Bundesliga Title race rather than burn in
Uefa Cup.
I already see announced squads from Italian sides (Fiore, Palermo, Empoli) before every match, without 6 or more first team players, dropping odds, removed games...it always happened, why not this year?
Italians simply don't care for this cup, and question is did they care for anything else but scudetto?
But Spaniards take it seriously, didn't they?
Results shows it.
Getafe is the only team from Spain qualified so far, and I can't see them as possible upset, but Zaragoza, Villareal or Atletico could take important role in this cup, and probably the winner?
Tottenham, Everton & Bolton..interesting prices !
As usually hard nuts to crack at Island, but away from home not convincing ones.
Everton could confirm their great season and go into the Competition with ambitions, depends on following market, as for every mentioned club.
Anyway, those @ 26 offered for Everton closes my list, since I can't see any of teams bellow as potential Cup winner (beside yet unknown contenders from Primera).
AZ (market ?) and Galatasaray (@ 51 ) also on a shortlist.
