I knew that it would be controversial. Lots of people here consider putting a "bottom bottom" above a "top top" some sort of sacrilege.
If it makes them happier, this season in Conference League I only did it once, while last season I did it twice (I was right about one of them, with Partizan advancing from a group with Koln and Nice, and wrong about the other with West Ham not advancing from its group).
I'm already warning them though that for the CL and EL predictions I'll probably do it again sometimes.
