This is a hard one, we got MYM vs Crack Clan, MYM has been changing players, only to arrive back at their original lineup, and CC has also just changed a player, so if you wish to figure out how these teams perform this is one to watch. However, there is another match, fnatic vs Blank - SpawN baby, need I say more? SpawN is back as stand-in for Blank, and how can you not watch that match? So, HLTV.org recommends Blank vs fnatic, for all your SpawN headshot needs!

Second round, 11.30 CET
This is a hard one too, here we have mTw vs fnatic, and Mousesports vs MYM. I think in this one I'll go for mTw vs fnatic, not only has mTw said that they think fnatic will be the hardest team to beat in the group, but this will also be the first real test of GeT_RiGhT and Gux in fnatic, don't miss this one.
This one is easy, you want to figure out if XLBet.Mirror (former ATS) is the best team in Denmark? Or if mTw still reign supreme? Then mTw vs XLBet.Mirror surely is the way to go, but having just seen mTw at 11:30 I think I'd rather watch SK vs Crack Clan. SK finished 2008 on an upwards form, will they have carried it through to 2009?
Easy, in this round there is no competition, Mousesports vs SK is where it is at, Mousesports, SK and mTw were easily the top3 teams last year, and Mousesports are the defending Extreme Masters champions, playing infront of their home crowd, this match you cannot miss.
Again, easy, SK vs MYM is where the quality CS is at this round. This will be an important match, that could decide if one of these two giants will not progress from the group play.
