Most of the games you mentioned are very tight...Let's see...
Sweden - Portugal: I'd go for a draw, considering the match is played on Swedish ground, but both teams have good players that can tilt the balance.
Scotland - Norway: I think Scotland will win
England - Kazakhstan : The only matter is the score... I think England will win by more than 3 goals
Wales - Liechtenstein: Wales wins 2-0 or something like that
Ukraine - Croatia: It might end a draw, but I think Croatia will win
Romania - France... Pfff... Considering I'm Romanian it's obvious that I wish Romania will win this one, but it's going to be very hard... Our national team isn't doing very wel right now, but the good news is France isn't at its best either. I'm going to say that we'll win the match. A draw would be good too, but it's a wild group, with Lithuania leading for the moment.
Serbia - Lithuania: the same group with Romania-France. Lithuania has two victories from two matches, and it's showing some good football. Nevertheless, the Serbian determination and fight spirit taken into account, I think the Serbian will win the match. The draw is also a possibility.
Bulgaria - Italy: Italy wins the match
Germany - Russia: a tight one, considering how the Russian performed at Euro 2008. However, the German have their strength and pride and they are playing at home so I believe they will win this one.
Slovenia - Northern Ireland: I don't know much about either of the two... From what I remember, Northern Ireland had a good position on the Euro 2008 qualifying group. .. Looking at the standings in that group, it looks like Slovenia will win.

I agree with you about some of the games. I think it is very even game in Sweden but Portugal have more chances especially that Ibrahimovich doesn't look in good shape so far. Also Scotland and England are favorites in their matches, Wales looks are clear favorite also but it will be interesting to see how they will play against defensive team especially that a lot of young players are in Wales squad. I disagree about Ukraine - Croatia. Croatia start very bad this campaign and they will be under pressure in Kiev. Ukraine will win for me. Romania are slight favorites for me against France and i think they will win 1-0. But we never don't know what to expect from France. Lithuania start very well with away win again Romania and home win against Austria and i think they can get at least a draw against Serbia. Italy must win 2-0 against Bulgaria, Slovenia will get a draw against North Ireland and finally Germany against Russia. I think this is the most interesting game this Saturday. It is difficult to tell who will win this game and i think it will be a draw. Germans will must to attack and will leave spaces for quick Russian's attacking players. Result will depend who will score first.

The reason I think Croatia might win is exactly that pressure they are under. I wouldn't say they had a bad start, they lost against England, and England had some bills to pay in that game. Ukraine only played against Belarus and Kazakhstan, not two of the best teams... Also, I think Ukraine has lost a bit of value, Shevchenko isn't playing his best football anymore.
As of Lithuania, they won against Austria, not one of the best teams, and Romania. Romania has a big problem: they lack determination and players are a bit lazy... More than that, two of the 3 goals scored by Lithuania in Romania were exceptional far shots. I think Serbia will take them very seriously after their last results, and from what I know about the Serbian teams in all sports they don't lack determination. It might end a draw, considering Lithuania has made some improvement lately, but I think Serbia are favorites.
I agree that Germany-Russia is the most interesting game to watch.
