Nice one, nogomet. :D

I have to say I was pretty salty for the last few seasons re Fradi's draw starting from the first round (ie. playing the Swedish champions in the beginning of July), but this season it's totally fine. Kazakhstani, Slovakian, Azeri, then Czech/Moldovan champs.
In Game of Thrones conquerors always say to the defeated side: "Bend the knee and you''ll live". As if they weren't alive right now.

I'm smarter than it shows. Just don't want to discourage anyone.

Well, Trabzon is the richest club among those in the Champions path with on paper by far the best squad. But of course matches are played on the field not on paper and Turkish clubs very often underperform in Europe. FCK quite easily beat Basaksehir recently so we 'll see. And I like very much Haifa draw, great chance to reach Champs League proper. My friend recently emigrated from Russia to Haifa and most likely will be in the stands, I am wholeheartedly with him :grin1:

All looks challenging and open, winner is Red Stars Belgrade.

FC Copenhagen - Trabzonspor > A challenge to both sides.

Zvezda/Pyunik - Apollon/Maccabi Haifa > Zvezda with the best draw.

Dinamo/Ludogorets - Bodoe/Zalgiris > Very much open to any side, maybe not Zalgiris.

Plzen/Sheriff - Qarabag/Ferencvaros > unpredictable, survival of the fittest.

I might even make it to Plzen. Will definitely attend the home game. If we get through Karabah, that is.

Ludogorets and Dinamo Zagreb are two experienced sides, but this is an historic chance for Bodo Glimt.

No big clash in the non-Champions path after all. I expect Benfica and the winner of PSV/Monaco to make Groups.

In the Champions path, the ties look pretty balanced. Zvezda and Plzen have a small advantage.

Actually it's a good draw for Kobenhavn, as Tony Wakeme, Trabzonspor's star, who had double double in goals/asisst has left the club
