Unfortunately Tromsø struggles a bit this season, but they will hopefully be better with one weeks rest before the next match. I don´t think we have much of a chance against Copenhagen, but we will see if/when the time comes.

Kilmarnock is a tricky game. A bit primitive maybe, but they are heavy on set pieces and physical. A tough task.

Maribor score in 90'+7 and Serbia have another, seventh defeat this season... That makes it 32 losses in this and previous season combined.

Wasn't clear cut. The goalie gets on the ball first.

It ends in a draw. Lot´s of free kicks and long balls from both sides.
How are you feeling about the 2nd leg in terms of your chances?

A rare 2/2 on the night (3/3 on the week) for us. Unfortunately all wins are only by one goal (1948 got a third disallowed a bit controversial but maybe right). Heres hoping for one team in PO.

I've counted 13 1-0 or 0-1 (considering the EL too).

There's still time for the number 14.

Tromsø is weak this year, any points they get is a bonus. Slight favourites at home.

Brann dominated St Mirren. Disappointing equalizer, but should be strong favourites at home.

Ye Brann will probably win, Killie are also underdogs now but aren't out of this

So in response to some of the comments about Scottish teams in various threads, I agree Kilmarnock and St. mirren aren't favourites however it has been acknowledged Celtic and Rangers are superior to the opposition they have been drawn against, and both have in recent seasons shown they can compete in one off games against both. So it isn't over, both can go through hence the reason Scottish football fans aren't happy with the dismissive and disrespectful nature you post on here

All I did on other thread was say that it was good draws for Killie & StMirren. I had Brann as slight favourites (when in reality I’ve probably underestimated them!) and Kilmarnock/Tromso 50/50.


I have no idea why it escalated as it did!

For what it’s worth, I think it’s a big ask from StMirren. Listened to 2nd half on radio and consensus is Brann should have went back to Norway with a lead and generally dominated.

As for Kilmarnock, it was a weird game. Killie scored early and were in control/comfortable until half-time. 2nd half, the wheels came off and given Tromso 2 very soft goals. Not a disaster and should be going to Norway with nothing to fear but we need to improve massively as I’d expect Tromso to be better. If we cut out the defensive mistakes that cost us last night and vs Cercle, we have a chance (but these basic errors are too frequent just make!).
you'll never take the killie
