Andy's Tuesday tips - Chelsea will triumph
Marseille have had an indifferent start to the season. The signing of Luis Fabiano fell through whilst they also lost Hatem Ben Arfa and Mamadou Niang over the summer, meaning they're not quite the potent attacking force they would like to be.
They've performed relatively well in this competition over the years but - that shock win at Liverpool a few years ago aside - they've found it hard to win matches away from home against the big boys for the most part.
For my money, this could be the year when Chelsea really do go on and win this competition. They were a little one-paced over the past few seasons with Michael Ballack and Deco in the side but with the likes of Ramires and the returning Michael Essien now major players they have that little extra bit of energy and gusto to their play.
This is a match that Chelsea should win comfortably and send a message to the field that they really mean business.
