Zurich must be half decent. Swiss league champions with ease last season.

 

Bottom of the league after three games this season without a goal scored.

 

Difficult tie though but away leg first is good.

Zurich are honkin at the moment. Had a good season last year but been poor in their first 3 openers.

Any chance of tie being changed? Young Boys are still in the Conference League

I'm sure they said at the start that teams will be told by tomorrow evening if there is a chance of their tie being switched around.

Not fussed who it is, if Linfield beat Zurich, they are obviously better than them. We need to be prepared to play our best, simple as

Under an 1 hour flight or just over 2 hours.  Happy either way, we're back in Europe baby.

 

Pretty expensive to fly to Zurich, but you can get mega cheap flights to Milan and Frankfurt with Ryanair.  About a 3 or 4 hour train journey from either.

Most Scottish teams cannot look at a draw and be over confident and I include us.

Of course but we at least shouldn't regard ourselves as underdogs in comparison to Zurich. We would be overwhelming favourites against Linfield.

Absolutely. But it is one of the better draws we could have had.

It really isn't, there's harder trams in that draw than them, no disrespect to Zurich of course.

WON the Swiss League last year, knocked out of CL by Qarabag, who wiped the floor with the Sheep last season, in an epic tie. It will be Zurich I would imagine, and it will be far from easy, anyone thinking this is a great tie, needs a reality check

This is by far the best opportunity that the draw has afforded a non-OF Scottish club in the final round of European qualifiers in a long time.

Compared to who we could have got, it was my second most wanted pairing after the Maribor fixture

When we flew in May the options were Edi-Amsterdam-Zurich with KLM

Edi-Frankfurt-Zurich with Lufthansa
Edi-London-Zurich with BA.
