Due to the Thanksgiving holiday in the US this week, we will not be able to post a Matchday 5 preview show. However, look for our next episode to come out next week with a recap and review of the Matchday 5 encounters, who has qualified for the knockout stage and who still has work to do in Matchday 6. We may even throw in some Euro 2008 qualifying discussion.

So be on the lookout for MD5 commentary at the end of next week!

Scott and Bill discuss the standings in each Champions League group, and which should be most exciting down the stretch.

Also, which teams should you watch for in the UEFA Cup? The unusually competitive coaching market. And news from FIFA on how World Cup hosts are selected.
