I want Olympiacos not to draw Eintracht, and secondary not to draw Gent.

Ideal opponents would be Dinamo Zagreb and Slovan Bratislava, but I consider all 6 remaining teams more or less at the same level.

It should be Dinamo Zagreb.

For Maccabi Haifa, I would prefer to get Ludogorets, Bodo/Glimt, Ferencvaros or Legia.

I would like to avoid Ajax for Legia. The two would meet in first spring round in Europe for the third time in 9 years... That would be too much.

A trip either to Austria or Switzerland would be interesting.

Bodo Glimt - Maccabi Haifa to settle the 15th place battle?

The only way for Betis to redeem themselves after tonight's flop is to go very far in this competition.

Aston Villa, Fiorentina, Eintracht, Betis, Lille, Club Brugge, Fenerbahce, USG and Ajax: not bad at all, on the contrary the rest of this competition looks quite interesting.

My wishlist :

Gent - Ajax (always enjoy Belgian & Dutch clashes)
Dinamo Zagreb - Olympiakos (more drama)
Bodø/Glimt - Maccabi Haifa (direct clash for 15th)
Frankfurt - Union SG (should be entertaining)
Legia - Sturm Graz (should be entertaining)
Ludogorets - Servette (Ludogorets deserve an easier draw)
Slovan Bratislava - Real Betis (no particular reason)

15 of the 16 seeded teams advanced from the Conference League groups, the only "intruder" is Legia.

The seed is strong. :-D

No Ajax and Betis please. As already mentioned by @Juliusz , it would be a 3rd Legia - Ajax KO tie in 9 years and somehow I have a feeling that Legia would most likely go out again. No Betis because Polish clubs have a terrible record vs Spanish ones, their technical style of play always worked very well vs our clubs.

Olympiacos always a scary name for a club like Legia. Despite recent problems they experience I hope Legia will avoid them.

Maccabi Haifa next in line, maybe even I should put them above Olympiacos, very solid team constantly playing on a decent level.

Union SG have already proved they gained enough of European experience to be very dangerous. They already eliminated teams like Union Berlin, Braga or Malmoe recently, so - no, thanks.

My wish for Legia is Sturm or Servette, I think Legia would be a slight favourites vs both.

No Ajax we played them already and no Betis we played them last year.
I can smell Betis though…

Dinamo will need some luck on Monday, it's 50/50 for a decent draw.

Ajax, Betis and Union are the ones to avoid.

Olympiakos can field their U17 team and comfortably advance as per tradition.

All others are OK, maybe Sturm is the best option.
