United's group is so easy its ridiculous. They will undoubtedly advance, but I pray someone sends them crashing right out in the round of 16. There are a few sides in there than can play spoiler though, Basel are a decent Swiss side and Benefica can be dangerous at times.
I'm actually right there with you on your predictions. The only teams I would swap are Ajax for Lyon in Group D. Lyon have a very good side, and they have one of the top keepers in Europe in Hugo Loris. And yes, our group will be tough, but I think we should advance.
