| Does anyone know how they are going to do it? I know 1st v 3rd and 2nd v CL3rd, but how will they keep apart group members and country from same assoc.s

| Thanks for the link.
One thing is still unclear to me - will there be any seeding in the round of 32 (and the round of 16)? |

| Do you mean even smaller pots? For the 32-round there are 4 pots: The numbers 1 of the UC-groups The numbers 3 of teh UC groups These will be drawn against eachother(UC-3 first at home)
The numbers 2 of the UC-groups The numbers 3 of the CL-groups These will be drawn against eachother(CL-3 first at home)
The round of 16 is yet unknown. It is drawn also on December 17th so if they will draw winners of these groups against eachother or completely random? I don't know, but seeding based on Team-coefficient will not be applied |

| But UEFA doesn't mention how they will keep the teams from the same countries and groups apart in the draw.
So maybe they will split up each seedinggroup in 2 to ensure these conditions. |

| I meant how are they going to keep teams apart.
They going to use groupings like they did in the UEFA Cup? |

| What I recon is that they will make the draw the way Ricardo described and in the case a team is drawn with a team from the same country or the same group then the draw will be repeated for that team. i think the same happens in champions league last 16 and last 8 draws to avoid teams from same country play together. |

| i guess they are going the same way as in cl group-stage draw, whenever a team is drawn it's first decided in which group it can be put, then it's drawn among the possible groups (sometimes not even that, as there's only one possibility)
so it could be similar with this uefa-draw: first the team is drawn then the decision against whom it could play, then the draw |
