EL qualifying 2015-16

[Di_Gule]

So much for Scottish Clubs in Europe.

[spoonman]

That's a pretty big stadium they're in, but it looks almost empty.

Seems to be this one:

[Diouf]

Randers ahead in Andorra against Sant Juliá after a Jonas Borring goal from a corner in the 21. minute.

A few minutes before that, Viktor Lundberg from Randers received a direct red card, apparently for elbowing an opponent.

I'm not sure that the game is broadcast; I just follow updates from Randers' homepage

[Lorric]

So much for Scottish Clubs in Europe.

I think it's a bit early to proclaim that 60mins into the first team in line's first game.

[bugylibicska]

Alashkert the 3rd team from ``very poor``Armenia to win? And I`ve given - after Pyunik - Ulisses the greatest chance to reach the 2nd round!

[Carson]

Thats why you never underestimate teams at this time of the year in Europe. The heat in Armenia isn't something the Scots will be used to and they haven't played in over a Month.

I expect upsets it's just a question of where there going to come. Some people are going to look very silly for their percentage chances of each game.

[bugylibicska]

Aktobe missing chance after chance, still goalless game in front of a packed stadium!

[Maxi Lozzo]

My favourite part of the Season has finally come !

Vikingur Reykjavik-Koper 45-55
Sheriff Tiraspol-Odd 45-55
Sheriff is maybe stronger, but I think that this match could give us an upset.
Very bad draw for Sheriff, and an interesting one for Odd, that could be seeded in the following Round.
Kukesi-Torpedo Zhodino 55-45
If Kukesi is still the one we saw 2 years ago, they could be slightly favorite, but Belarussian teams are quite unpredictable and it should be a very balanced tie.
Alashkert-St.Johnstone 25-75
I don't know a lot about Alashkert, but if they aren't better than the other Armenian teams, the tie should be quite closed.
Jelgava-Litex Lovech 20-80
Newtown-Valletta 40-60
Valletta should be slightly stronger. Anyway a good draw for both of them.
Dinamo Tblisi-Gabala 50-50
One of the strongest and most balanced ties of this Round: very bad draw for Dinamo Tblisi
Renova-Dacia Chisinau 20-80
Olimpic Sarajevo-Spartak Trnava 25-75
Spartak should have no troubles.
West Ham-Lusitanos 99,99-00,01
Andorran hotel and pub owners can be very happy.
Glenavon-Shakhtyor Soligorsk 25-75
Differdange-Bala Town 65-35
Teams from Luxemburg are often unpredictable both in a positive and in a negative way, but they should be a bit stronger.
Shkendija-Aberdeen 20-80
Vikingur Gota-Rosenborg 5-95
SJK-FH 50-50
SJK (unseeded) can be happier than FH for this draw.
FH is often an hard opponent in EL, but SJK is probably more dangerous than the other Finnish teams: they're a quite solid rising team.
Linfield-NSI Runavik 70-30
Brondby-Juvenes/Dogana 99,9-0,1
MTK Budapest-Vojvodina 45-55
One of the most balanced ties.
Skonto-St.Patrick's Athletic 50-50
Skonto Riga is much better than an average Latvian club, anyway both teams are quite unpredictable.
Lahti-Elfsborg 25-70
Atlantas-Beroe Stara Zagora 40-60
Beroe should be stronger, but, considering some bad performances from Bulgarian teams in the previous yeras, a surprise isn't unthinkable.
Debrecen-Sutjeska Niksic 85-15
Ordabasy-Beitar Jerusalem 50-50
Beitar could be slightly stronger, but Kazak teams are Always a very hard opponent in EL Q1.
Balzan-Zeljeznicar 5-95
Sillamae Kalev-Hajduk Split 10-90
Spartaks Jurmala-Budocnost Podgorica 45-55
Budocnost is maybe a bit stronger, but Spartaks could be Dangerous.
Crvena Zvezda-Kairat Almaty 50-50
An infamous draw for Crvena Zvezda
Flora Tallinn-Rabotnicki 55-45
Sant Julia-Randers 10-90
Randers is much stronger, but maybe Saint Julia won't be smashed.
Saxan-Apollon Limassol 10-90
Progres Niedercorn-Shamrock Rovers 40-60
Aktobe-Nomme Kalju 70-30
Not the best draw for Aktobe, Nomme Kalju could cause them few troubles.
Dinamo Batumi-Omonia 15-85
Kruoja Pakruojis-Jagiellonia Bialystok 15-85
Shirak-Zrinjski Mostar 70-30
First Leg is already over, the first surprise of the day.
Cork City-KR 50-50
Go Ahead Eagles-Ferencvaros 25-75
Fair Play won't probably be a reward for Holland.
Trakai-HB 40-60
Laci-Inter Baku 40-60
VPS-AIK 15-85
UCD-F91 Dudelange 30-70
Domzale-Cukaricki 40-60
Cukaricki is stronger and has performed well since 2 years ago, but Serbian teams different from the big two are often unpredictable.
Glentoran-Zilina 20-80
Partizani Tirana-Stromsgodet 40-60
Godset is favorite, but an upset isn't impossible.
Mladost Podgorica-Neftchi Baku 15-85
Celje-Slask Wroclaw 40-60
Slask is favorite, but Celje was one of the unseeded teams to avoid: a surprise is more than possible.
La Fiorita-Vaduz 5-95
A micronation Derby.
Birkirkara-Ulisses 60-40
First test for Miccoli.
Airbus UK Broughton-Lokomotiva 10-90
There should be no contest.
Botosani-Tskhinvali 65-35
I'm curious to weight Botosani in Europe, could they be a negative surprose ?
College Europa-Slovan Bratislava 5-95

[Carson]

Skonto stadium is interesting they have a car park behind one of there goals.

[bugylibicska]

Aktobe - Nomme Kalju 0:0 at half time, too many missed chances might backfire for Aktobe. Dinamo Batumi are up 1:0 vs. Omonia Nicosia!

[Lorric]

The stream has spent most its time buffering than showing anything, but St. Johnstone wasted a golden chance. The player was further into the box than the penalty spot and near the middle, and just shot a weak shot straight at the keeper.

[Maxi Lozzo]

Few surprises so far:
Shirak Zrjnski 2-0 FT
Alashkert - St. Johnstone 1-0 almost FT.
VPS - AIK 1-0 HT
Dinamo Batumi - Omonia 1-0 HT.
Netchi - Madost 1-1 HT.

[Lurker]

AIK had to make a goalie change. The first keeper got injured. In with the 3rd keeper instead. Still they have most/all of the chanses in the game. But the pace is too slow. They need to step it up. Now it's to easy to defend for the finns. Noticed Elfsborg also still only have a draw against their finish opposition. And the heatwave in Sweden have certainly not reached these parts of Finland. Raining.

And VPS just scored. As usuall on away soil this year. Embarrassing...

So much for Swedish clubs... ey Di Gule

[matt]

Poor Kruoja, they conceded a goal in the last action...they also had some occasions to score, however Jagiellonia takes the win...

[Carson]

A 1-0 defeat has never been turned around in Football nope never St Johnstone are out.
