    Not too sure what you mean, but if we get through this round and put out in the next, we will go straight into the Europa group stages.

    Hope that helps.

    Why oh why, after about 5 years, have people still not figured out the Champions/Non Champions path?!

    We cannot, in any way, play a team who didn't win their league, such as Arsenal and Sociedad.

    We are seeded for all the rounds, and are only put in a draw with other champions, half of which are unseeded. The same applies to the non-champions sections.

    Just checked and the last point in which you go into the europa is 3rd place (only) in the group stages:50:

    Although Dinamo have some decent players, Partizan on the other hand is utter * this season. They equalized in 90th minute against Armenian champions, but they were * during the whole match.

    Hopefully we will draw Partizan, so me and my fellow Serbian Celts can watch Celtic. :celt_2:

    Elfsborg's a good draw for us. We should beat them.

    Wouldnt say it was a good draw, they are arguably the best team we could have got and about 15 games into their season. Swedish teams are quite good nowadays, I think 3 of them were in the Europa League Group Stages last year, not to be underestimated, its a better League than ours now :54:

    Maybe overall the league in Sweden is better than here in Scotland, but last season proved that for the time being the Champions of Scotland are still better than the Champions of Sweden. It's a different team we're facing now however I don't expect them to be much different in terms of quality when compared to the Helsingborgs side of last season.

    Helsingborgs played us off the park for large chunks of the away game, this game against Elfsborg will be no walk over.

    Check this out at play off stage. (4th qualifying round for Champions)
    http://kassiesa.home.xs4all.nl/bert/uefa/seedcl2013.html

    we play against any of the unseeded teams in champions section if all the seeded teams get through from 3rd round qualifiers.

    I hope we at least get to the play offs. I will feel better knowing we have the Europa League parachute. However all the teams we could face in the play offs are winnable ties. We should get past Elfsborg but it won't be easy. They are of similar quality to Helsinki/Helsingborgs. We should get through if we keep daft mistakes to a minimum.

    It would be a huge boost to us if both Plezn and Bate went out. It would move Zagreb and Belgrade into the seeded places and if we get through, make our path to the groups potentially easier.

    If we get as far as the group stages and come third in our group ,then we are also handed a parachute. I would almost rather that than getting put out at the last 16 stage and getting handed * all.

    Tbh I would rather reach the last 16 than finish 3rd in the CL group. I understand what your saying but we could also get punted out at the last 32 of the Europa league.
