Group D: Club Brugge, Bodo/Glimt, Besiktas, Lugano - Besiktas impressing, Club Brugge strong, Bodo unlucky draw

Group E: AZ Alkmaar, Aston Villa, Legia Warsaw, Mostar Zrinjski - Villa might do a clean sweep, Legia cause an upset (biased a bit)
I hope you are wrong about these groups. But yeah, Bodo sold one of their better players (Hugo Vetlesen)... to Brugge :nono:
AZ didn't play well yet, but I hope they are good enough to beat Legia and Mostar...
I hope I'm not. I'm quite confident about the outcome in group D, but much less in group E. I just would like to see Legia go through, that's it.

@Witkop1983 & everyone, just in case you don't know why @bugylibicska root for Legia and I root for Ferencvaros:

Pole and Hungarian brothers be,
good for fight and good for party.
Both are valiant, both are lively,
Upon them may God's blessings be.


Or Hungarian version:

Pole and Hungarian — two good friends,
fighting, and drinking at the end.

Polish - Hungarian ally still alive... on the UEFA European Football Forum as well. 8)

In the Europa league draw they said no later than tomorrow morning. Probably the same for the conference league
Good morning, forum.

8 o'clock already and still there is no schedule. Or perhaps they meant "tomorrow morning" in San Francisco's local time.

You are not alone. I am waiting for Group H in Europa League with Bayer Leverkusen, Qarabag, Molde and Häcken.

They changed the sequence of games from 1-2-3-3-2-1 back to 1-2-3-3-1-2. Why?

The exact schedule i did not want game 3/4 vs Fener. I was hoping to catch them in game 5/6 when they are qualified.
Oh well its a disaster year anyway.

Perfect calendar for FCN. Getting rid of the trip to Istanbul right away and perhaps can surprise the Turks before they get rolling. Then home to Ludo and then the two games vs Trnava.

Only one game (Lille - Ljubljana) is on CL day and its starting time looks weird. Any reason?

Everything is just on paper until the matches start. We have seen in previous years that EL+ECL is a tournament full of surprises. There is nothing that could be called a disaster yet. Our group is open to any outcome, so it won't be boring :up:

I meant our year in general. We dont even have 2.000 points and its GS time.

Probably the time is to avoid a clash with CL matches.
