How about:
8)Rebel = Botvinnik
9)Fritz = Capablanca?

It is quite difficult to find a counterpart for Fritz, mainly
because it's style is very typical for computers. Last versions
of Fritz tend to have more and more knowledge.
Fritz 7 is quite a solid program, in typical positions it doesn't create
unnecessary weaknesses and doesn't get into tactical skirmishes as much as
earlier versions. I chose Capablanca not only because of his simple and clear
play, but also because Fritz seems to agree more with Capablanca moves than
most other programs.
