UEFA Cup Draw




The UEFA Cup Draw was held on early Tuesday morning, and there are two to three really challenging groups. I think the most difficult group has to be Group A, which is made up of German side Schalke 04, Paris Saint-Germain from France, Robinho's Manchester City, Racing Santander of La Liga, and rounding things off are Eredivisie's FC Twente.

That entire group should be full of interesting matches, but here are some other matches to look forward to. Group C's Sevilla v Stuttgart clash should be fun to watch, as well as
the Ajax, Hamburg and Aston Villa games in Group F.

Here are the groups in their entirety:
