Are there any official records on how these "groups" are composed? As it doesn't seem fully regional ...

Does the UEFA just have free reign here to do whatever they see fit? If so that's indeed highly unfair.

The drawing guy did not mix Ludogorets' and Ferencvaros' balls in the middle bowl to the determine who will be the host in the first leg. Instead, he simply picked the ball from the seeded bowl first and singlehandedly decided that it is Ludogorets who will host the first leg.

Bravo, UEFA. Bravo!

Astana Cluj, Ludo Ferencvaros, Celtic Sarajevo and BATE Piast are probably the most interesting ties. I expect Celtic and Ludo to win, other 2 ties are 50/50

I thought match 6 was Qarabag-Partizani. I may have misread it.

Actually, it's the loser of the match between Celtic and FK Sarajevo that gets a bye from the EL 2nd qualifying round.

I saw match 6, but it might be match 8, because the angle the camera was recording was so poor that I barely could see anything. Terrible job by the production team.
