Footballfirst Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 Rangers get a relatively easy draw in the CL. Celtic, St Johnstone, Aberdeen and Hibs look unlikely to progress very far. Rangers will face Malmo or HJK Helsinki in the CL 3QR. Memories for fans of the Oldco of 10 years ago after Malmo put paid to Craig Whyte's plans. Celtic v Midtjylland (1st leg) tomorrow and, if they go through, PSV or Galatasaray in the CL 3QR. If Celtic lose against the Danes, then they will face Jablonec of the Czech Republic in the EL 3QR. I think that's their best route to playing group matches. St Johnstone will face the loser of the PSV v Galatasary tie in their EL 3QR game. Hibs v Santa Coloma on Thursday in their Conf League 2QR, then Croatian side Rijeka or Gzira United of Malta if they progress. They should get through the first round but will struggle against Rijeka. Aberdeen play Hacken on Thursday then Austria Vienna or Breidablik of Iceland. They will struggle to beat the Swedes, far less the Austrians. Quote
Rudy T Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 Can we have a competition on the title of this years Hibs in Europe dvd…. Maltese Mayhem is my guess as they crash out on pens after a plucky 2-2 draw! Quote
Locky Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 Rangers will be happy with their draw. Malmo struggled to overcome a Latvian team in the last round albeit doing well in the league. Don't think HJK are anything to be feared. Celtic won't have it easy against the Danes but reckon they'll see them off. Not sure there after who I'd want if I was one of them. Galatasaray is probably less favourable. Also PSV look set to lose Malen and Dumfries before the tie rolls around. Whether they'll have replacements for them in time, I don't know. Not bad draws for Hibs. They should pump this Andorran team, and Rijeka is tough on paper, but pretty sure Aberdeen beat them a year or 2 ago? Speaking of the Dons, I think they'll struggle past Hacken, and Austria Vienna will be tough, but both are winnable if they turn up. St Johnstone don't stand a chance against PSV or Galatasaray but should be a good occasion. They'll have one eye on the Conference play-off draw as that's the big one for them. Quote

JackLadd Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 Malmo might give Sevco some issues, not HJK, easiest draw though. psv would gub them. Quote

VALDOS' Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 I reckon Rangers and Celtic will end up playing Europa League Groups, the rest I suspect will be out before the end of August. Quote

You say that but their midfield and forward line could still be something like: McGregor Turnbull Soro Christie Ajeti Edouard Be honest we’d love that sort of talent at Hearts. Their defence is poor but with no away goal rule now so long as they out score them it doesn’t matter. Quote

Out of interest, do you have hope for Hearts to qualify for Europe and progress to the more lucrative group stages? It is extremely difficult when facing the seeding system e.g. our next two likely opponents (BK Hacken and Austira Vienna) probably represent one of our better opportunities to progress (although Hacken are hitting form and are half way through their season) Even if we were to progress the next two qualifying rounds, we'd be in a draw to likely be up against one of the following in the play-off round AS Roma Ita 90.000 Tottenham Hotspur Eng 88.000 FC Basel ** Sui 49.000 FC København ** Den 43.500 Viktoria Plzen ** Cze 33.500 AA Gent ** Bel 26.500 Anderlecht *3 Bel 25.000 FK Astana ** Kaz 22.500 LASK *3 Aut 21.000 Feyenoord ** Ned 21.000 Qarabag FK ** Azb 21.000 FCSB ** Rom 21.000 Maccabi Tel-Aviv ** Isr 20.500 PAOK Thessaloniki *** Gre 20.000 AEK Athens ** Gre 19.500 Quote

Surely a team with pedigree... Rangers is the seeded team in QR3 of the champions path, but is predicted to be unseeded in the PO Round The predicted seeded clubs in the PO Round are Salzburg, Dinamo Zagreb, Slavia Prague and Olympiakos. That assumes that the last three progress through their qualifying round. That would leave the possibility of a repeat of last season's Slavia Prague v Rangers tie. I wonder if Kudela would be free to come to Glasgow should the draw play out that way. Edited July 20, 2021 by Footballfirst Quote
Footballfirst Posted July 20, 2021 Author Posted July 20, 2021 Similarly Celtic is a seeded team in QR2 and QR3 of the non champions path, but is predicted to be unseeded in the PO Round. The predicted seeded clubs for the PO Round in the non champions path are Shakhtar Donetsk and Benfica. Quote
