The two Madrid clubs, Chelsea, Borussia Dortmund and last year's runners up Tottenham, now under"serial winner" Jose Mourinho, lurk in the second pot."We are one of the strongest teams from the second group," Mourinho said."I think the teams that finished first will wish they don't play against us."
