Champions League draw

[liamctid]

Matchday 1: 13–14 September 2011

Matchday 2: 27–28 September 2011

Matchday 3: 18–19 October 2011

Matchday 4: 1–2 November 2011

Matchday 5: 22–23 November 2011

Matchday 6: 6–7 December 2011

- From memory is there anyway you could have an idea of what we're more likely to get? (not my finest sentence...)

i.e. is it usually MD 1 = 1 v 4 and 2 v 3? And similarly, any idea if they're away or at home?!

This is the sequencing of the games

1st match day: 2 v 3 4 v 1
2nd match day: 1 v 2 3 v 4
3rd match day: 3 v 1 2 v 4
4th match day: 1 v 3 4 v 2
5th match day: 3 v 2 1 v 4
6th match day: 2 v 1 4 v 3

Heroic. So I can presume that I'll be in the country on the 18th/19th October?

And I could (if I was looking to waste time at work) have a check into the flights for

7 94.110 AC Milan (ITA)
8 87.776 FC Shakhtar Donetsk (UKR)
(Presuming that Bayern and Arsenal both qualify)
Pot 2
9 85.465 Valencia CF (ESP)
10 73.941 PFC CSKA Moskva (RUS)
11 68.735 Olympique de Marseille (FRA)
12 60.441 FC Zenit St Petersburg (RUS)
13 56.025 AFC Ajax (NED)
+ Lyon and Benfica (still putting Ajax in there although by the draw it's more than likely we'll be in the same pot... I think?! Presuming Benfica have a higer ranking than them?)

For the second week of September?

 

[The Fat el Hombre]

I'd hang fire on those dates liam because i've already done that and I checked the sequence for clubs in previous years and they didn't follow it. Now either the sequence is a new thing for this season or it isn't quite as set in stone as you may think. If someone could clarify this I'd be very greatful

Failing that, anyone any idea when the fixture dates will be confirmed by uefa?

 

[pissedagain]

about three years ago ferguson cryed about being away after a euro trip and hey presto... this is a fact, i even think it was on Rafa s fact sheet

 

[fy6blue]

the draw is always on Friday 12PM, 26/8

I promise, it's Thursday 25th this year! lol

Just copied this from EUFA website. For some reason they have seperated Champion & Europa Draws for these Rounds.

Any idea who we can or cant draw yet? Would like to do some flight research. Really fancy Lisbon first away match.

The list below is provisional, and is subject to final confirmation from UEFA.

That's correct, these sequences come directly from article 7.05 of the UEFA regulations on their web-site, so I guess only changes should come from same team drawn at home in the same week etc...

1st match day: 2 v 3 4 v 1

I dont think it is correct, you are making the assumption we are 3, because we are seeded 3rd, I think after the draw is done, each team is then allocated a number via another computerised 'draw'.

Benfica 64.019 points & Lyon 76.068 points look as if they would go into pot 2. City with 48.307 points are rated 33rd and are destined for pot 3.

berryblue. bayern munich and villarreal play tonight both huge favourites to go through. how would the groups look then. cheers

 

[gaudinho's stolen car]

So when is the draw?

 

[raininspain]

This is by far the most up-to-date information about all this:

<a class="postlink" href="http://kassiesa.home.xs4all.nl/bert/uefa/seedcl2011.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://kassiesa.home.xs4all.nl/bert/uef ... l2011.html</a>

It's better to click on the link than try to make out what I've copied and pasted here.

Below it is assumed that the seeded teams of the 4th qualifying round qualify for the group stage. If unseeded teams qualify other teams may shift to a higher pot.
