Blackburn Rovers' in-form striker Benni McCarthy was eyeing up possible matches against former clubs Celta Vigo and Ajax in today's UEFA Cup draw.
McCarthy, who has five goals in all competitions so far this season, began his career with the Dutch giants before moving to Spain where starred for Celta for four seasons.
The South African said: "If I was picking I would love to get Celta Vigo, certainly ahead of Ajax.
"Celta Vigo are perhaps a little more predictable and it would probably be easier playing them than Ajax - not that any game will be easy.
"But it is great to get through to the group stages and we hope we can give a good account of ourselves.
"Things are looking very good."
