A number of these games will depend on how well players go through the African Cup, injuries may affect a few. Chelsea may be the most affected in this regard, and although I don't like Chelsea I will still be supporting them in this match up (I'm a EPL fan).

United may have an (unintended) added benefit of players out injured right now, they may be fresher physically come Feb. Same for Arsenal, IMO.

Sevilla guys sound cocky, but playing in Moscow in Feb is not a good thing for players accustomed to sunny Spain, if Russians score a couple at home they can park the bus away. Moscow is in deep freeze right now and this may turn out to be an even colder winter than last 2. German games may be affected same way.
