Porto in Champions League

In Friday's Champions League draw in Nyon, Switzerland Jose Mourinho and Chelsea were drawn against Jose's old club Porto FC.

As Chelsea won Group A, they also won the right to play the second leg at home. I believe in a two legged competition it is much better to play the first leg away first!!

It won't be the first time that Jose will face his old club. Soon after Jose joined Chelsea after leaving Porto, both team were drawn in the Champions League group stage. Chelsea won 3-1 at Stamford Bridge and in the return Porto prevailed 2-1.

A similar set of results will see Chelsea in the last eight of the Champions League competition.
