Hopefully we are in a direct clash with a Ligue 1 side in PSG in the last 8 and knock them out too.Need to create distance between Serie A and Ligue 1 atleast.
I still hope Valencia can win 2-0 in Paris but I can't see that happening.
I'm pretty sure Bordeaux will get knocked out next round, they're against Benfica.
I think we can realistically expect Juve(very likely), Milan(hard but possible), and Lazio(likely) to progress. Inter could perhaps upset Spurs but I doubt it. This would get Italy to at least 14 points, which is good.

I can't see Ligue 1 surpass Serie A, sure PSG will get them more points than in the previous years but so will we as we're back as a powerhouse, while Milan will probably only get better.
I'd also like to see Fiorentina in the EL, they've done well there in the past, reaching the semifinals in 2008.
