    Lest we forget that the Blues have not been beyond the last 16 in Europe. Their domestic form is flawless, however, so the omen's are good at least. 

    Juventus, on the other hand have lost two of their opening Serie A matches so far, drawing the other. Veteran goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon said: "We can't be happy with what has happened so far but we can't feel sorry for ourselves, far from it."

    Jury still out on van Gaal - Hoddlepublished at 17:58

    PSV Eindhoven v Manchester United (19:45 BST)

    Former England international Glenn Hoddle has tipped former PSV striker Memphis for a goal against his old club, but is less positive about Louis van Gaal.

    He told Zapsportz.com:, external “I think the jury is still out on Manchester United and Louis van Gaal’s reign there so far. It's been OK, some good results, but for me they have not really been tested as yet, and that test will come round the corner, obviously.

    “For me they would have to do a lot more if they have any possibility of going all the way in the Champions League."

    Fiji have prepared for the atmosphere in Friday's World Cup opener - by training to the sound of England fans in full voice.

    Coach John McKee said: "That was part of our preparation. It was the normal crowd noise from Twickenham that was taken off some of the footage.

    "It was good in those sessions we did it; it affected the intensity of the training. It's hard to hear calls and the communication in the game."

    Fiji have already opted to wear white and occupy the home dressing room after winning a coin toss to help their efforts to try and cause an upset.
