    No us and Basel will be seeded in Play offs too. They are higher than us though bt we will still be seeded.

    Assuming all seeds go through.. which isn't a certainty after the first leg results, but let's go with it for now...

    Lech Poznan - FC Basel
    Ludogorets - Skenderbeu
    HJK Helsinki - Maribor
    Celtic - Qarabag
    Steaua Bucuresti - FK Partizan
    Midtjylland - APOEL
    Maccabi Tel Aviv - Viktoria Plzen
    Dinamo Zagreb - Molde
    Videoton - BATE Borisov
    RB Salzburg - Malmo

    Assume all seed through again.... then we'd be left with.

    PlayOff Round

    Seeded:
    FC Basel
    Salzburg
    Viktoria Plzen
    Celtic
    Steaua Bucuresti

    Unseeded:
    APOEL
    BATE Borisov
    Ludogorets
    Maribor
    Dinamo Zagreb

    These would be the toughest teams we could face in the PlayOff.. A couple of them had bad results first leg, so it could get a lot 'easier' on paper.

    -------------

    Leave me be, I'm excited :icon_mrgreen:

    Quarabag will be a really tough one, no matter what we need at least 1 away goal against them, though in saying that they've only won 2 out of their last 8 games, but they will be up for it against us.

    I know but this is the same as the stuff we give about usually on a bigger scale like the pots in the group draw and stuff like that, only give out about it when it doesn't suit us:smiley-laughing002:

    My first thought * there all tough games:smiley-laughing002:

    A don't care if we've had a year under Ronny now, at this early stage in the season those last two rounds are always hard.

    Ooft, we'll do very well to qualify. None of those draws would fill me with confidence.

    We are familiar with Maribor and Zagreb already so we know what to expect. It won't turn out that way anyway, as you say. It's never that simple.

    APOEL, BATE and Ludogrets would be * trips. Really *.

    I seem to remember APOEL having some atmosphere. It's ties like that which make me wonder why some people can be so naive as to think we should 100% be qualifying. Not many of us think that but there are a good few who have said that.

    Yeh this is jumping the gun as we still have three games to play before getting to the play off round, but who will we want out of the teams below? If you were to rate them 1-5 how would it look?

    if we cant get past them we shouldnt be in it. all of them are very beatable with a decent performance.

    Unseeded:
    APOEL - 2
    BATE Borisov - 4
    Ludogorets - 5
    Maribor - 1
    Dinamo Zagreb - 3

    Not really sure about how good the first three are but BATE have been in the CL a couple of times in the last few years so they're likely decent enough. Ludogorets are probably the best team from the group though. I'd want to avoid them.

    Maribor would get ruined this time.. we were so wasteful vs them at their pitch.

    Aye wont turn out like that at all, hopeully 1 or 2 will go out this round.. APOEL Drew at home 1st leg, Ludogorets lost at home 1st leg and BATE only won 2-1 at home 1st leg.. all in the balance.

    APOEL got to the quarter finals of the Champions League but I don't know how much of that team is left
