Though I can't guarantee anything, personally I really would not bother. Not only will row 1 and 2 open up at some point, but also they may well push the curtain back. Usually CE passengers do get a reasonable seat selection, and in any case at one week you get more choice when your Bronze seat selection opens up.. Moreover as you pass via Theoretical Seating and OLCI, there will be multiple other options for seat selection. Just remember not to print or download a boarding pass until the last moment, if you don't get the seat arrrangement you want.
