Champions League Last 16 Draw - RB Leipzig

[ysmsa]

Can somebody confirm that we will not have to play an English clup in the round of 16?

Confirmeb

Clubs from the same country can't meet in the last 16.
It's only from the Quarter Finals onwards.

How does that work for the fuckin Dippers, Everton aren't in the CL.

The teams we can face are:

Inter Milan
Club Brugge/Porto
Ac Milan/Salzburg
Winner of shakhtar vs Leipzig
Benfica/PSG

Tottenham group is still wide open so anyone from there.

The probability is that psg will finish 2nd if they don't win in Turin. They're probably the only team we'd want to avoid

So we just need to add sporting Lisbon, Marseille and Frankfurt as possibles and that's it ,and the away leg will be one of the 2 February weeks I think .as group winners play home second

Thank fuck, no dippers for us. They have some kind of psychological edge over us. Fucking dread the thought of playing them.

Real Madrid are only a point ahead. If they finish second, then that's the toughest tie possible. If both Real and PSG top the groups, we already have one foot in the quarter-finals.

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Yes but Liverpool finishing 2nd rules out the chance of playing Napoli, which is great for us as they look strong this year.

They haven't met a team that places emphasis on controlling the flow of the game, that's why they look so good. If they come up against us or Bayern, they would be exposed

Would love to see us get shakhtar in Warsaw ,that would be a brilliant trip ,and cost about 20p :+)

Off those 12 teams that have qualified, 11 are from the 6 top nations in Europe.

There are 5 chamions. 3 runners-up, 2 third placed teams, and Benfica who were in a two legged play-off to qualify for the league stages.

The exception is Brugge (Belgium Champions) from the 12th best nation.

The 11 from the top leagues will increase to 13 when Group D gets decided.

So a guaranteed 13 out of 16 from the top six leagues, if Milan from group E and Leipzig from group F qualify then it will be 15 teams from the top 6 leagues.

The "competition" is just a money making racket.

Isn't that what you'd expect, not sure what your point is ?
