Arsenal and Liverpool have played three games against each other over the course of a week and are probably as sick of each other as we are with watching these two teams clash. Seriously. One time a few months is enough. But after today, someone is going home for the rest of the Champions League year. Will Cesc Fabregas glisten in Europe’s most acclaimed tourney? Will Fernando Torres stay healthy and lead Liverpool to another grueling title? Did Rafa Benitez shave that stupid goatee? Oh. Right. Chelsea and Fenerbahce are clashing today as well, but we’ve already cast our voodoo spell on Drogba so they’re done.

Liverpool FC V Arsenal FC: Anfield: 1445EST

• If Arsenal can obtain their fervent drive from last week, then Liverpool don’t stand a chance. Even playing at Anfield, Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher will have to contend with a swarming and creative Arsenal offense that ate him alive last game. Arsenal’s Adebayor is back from an ankle injury suffered over the weekend, so that means fierce headers, punishing drives and a hell of a strong right foot. Yet, Arsenal will be without Robin Van Persie, which will hinder their speed on the flanks.

  On the other hand, Liverpool are content that a healthy lineup and their home stadium will guarantee a victory. All you really need is Fernando Torres, Dirk Kuyt and Steven Gerrard to have a solid game right? Yeah, we’re kind of stumped on this one, but we’re going with tradition and Liverpool’s European success here. [Ed note: Doh!]

  Predicition: Liverpool 2, Arsenal 1.

Chelsea V Fenerbahce: Stamford Bridge: 1445EST

• It’s difficult to defend a Fenerbahce upset at Stamford Bridge when Chelsea manager Avram Grant strategically rested Didier Drogba and Ricardo Carvahlo for this game. He’ll also have Frank Lampard and John Terry back from injury, which either means Chelsea are going to have a full charge, or they’ll be running around, winded, like hyenas. They’ve got the home field thing going for them, but they won’t have brick wall Petr Cech at goalie because of that nasty facial surgery thing. Michel Essien is also a bit banged up, but he’s scheduled to play. Alright, enough of this.

  Fenerbahce are Turkish, brah! And they’re going to upset the hell out of Chelsea! Deivid t-shirts for everyone! Seriously, there are too many English teams anyway.

  Predicition: Chelsea 1, Fenerbahce…2!
