Pretty much agree with you there, Martens. The only thing I'd maybe argue with slightly is Lyon's form, which is patchy by their recent standards, and this is probably the weakest they've looked for a good few years.

Having said that, the same can be said for Barcelona, who've been poor so far this season. Henry has yet to reproduce the form he showed for Arsenal, Ronaldinho is capable of running the match or being completely anonymous, Eto'o's out injured, Messi's just back from injury, Rijkaard coming in for increasing criticism...

Two 0-0 draws and a controversial 3-1 win with a dubious goal (may not have crossed the line) and a hotly disputed penalty aren't the signs of a team on form. That 7/1 or thereabouts on Lyon looks very tempting.

Also like the price for Sevilla. I wouldn't let the Puerta incident distract you, Slick. Yes, they're emotional, but they're focused too. The Milan game in the Super Cup was the one where the emotion maybe got to them a bit. A 4-1 hammering of Huelva (and a missed penalty too) at the weekend suggests they're now back on track. If they're on form, I honestly don't think there are many better teams in this competition, including Arsenal.
