AC MILAN
Benfica
Celtic
Shakhtar Donetsk
Group D really looks a tricky one to me. Of course, you can easily omit Shakhtar Donetsk from the fight to go to the next round. Shakhtar Donetsk has never done anything impressive in Europe despite the fact it is a strong club in Ukraine. In fact, alst season, in Ukrainian Premier League, the club was in second position. AC Milan is the top seed in Group D and I feel they deserve to be the top seed. However, I am not expecting an easy time for AC Milan. You can never neglect a club like Benfica.
Benfica is highly experienced in Europe and no team can take them lightly. So, I am expecting a tough competition between Benfica and AC Milan in Group D. What about Celtic? Celtic is really an unpredictable team. It has a formidable squad and can offer some tough times to all the other clubs in this group. Celtic is the current champion of Scottish Premier League. In fact, Celtic lost to AC Milan in First Knockout Round of UEFA Champions League 2006-07 (last season). So, Group D can easily become the group of death for all the clubs.
