The Importance of being Draco Malfoy

Now alot of talk has gone about Snape and his role/past history in 
the books, so I wanted to bring up Malfoy's role (or possible role).

Now I have read alot of fanfiction and alot of different authors have 
different views, but I have noticed that alot of authors have him as 
a good guy eventually and this is something that I find a) rather 
disturbing and b) completeley wrong. (Especially the D/G shippers or 
worse D/H ships.)

What role will he play?

Here are my thoughts:

Malfoy's upbring though spoilt is also of a arroagant nature. This 
much is obvious, but I cannot see how he will change in anyway, 
especially go against his father, who in my opinion he idolises as 
much (if not more than Tom Riddle). Malfoy, in simple terms, will be 
on the opposite side to Harry come the end of the series. I cannot 
see how it could be any other way.

A more speculative thought is that there will be a forced 
confrontation between Harry and Malfoy either at school or before the 
final showdown (however that does pan out). Possibly even after Harry 
has defeated Riddle if he does, (I have already mentioned my thoughts 
on the ending in an aptly named post The End).

Anyone care to give their reasons for or against my ideas?
