Chelsea vs Nordsjaelland and Manchester United vs Cluj: Champions League Open Thread

Today is D-day for Chelsea manager Rafa Benitez whose side has the chance of making it through to the next round of the UEFA Champions League. In the past, Benitez has been a master tactician in the Champions League tournament. Let’s see if he can figure out a way to help Chelsea convincingly beat Nordsjaelland, while hoping that Shakhtar Donetsk will defeat Juventus.

In the other Champions League match today featuring a Premier League side, Manchester United plays at home against Cluj in a match where United will field some B players (they’ve already qualified for the next round).

Let’s hope Chelsea and Manchester United can certainly perform better today than the very disappointing performances yesterday from Arsenal and Manchester City.
