With that lot you're playing a name. The Premier League is so strong now that almost all of our clubs could get into the Champions League snywhere else. There's not another club in the draw who we wouldn’t be favourites to best.

Not having to travel too far, and fans that don't require major police operations for the home leg would be ideal.

Villa 10/3
Fiorentina 5/1
Eintracht Frankfurt 8/1
Lille 10/1
Fenerbahce 12/1

I'd say those are the odds before the EL teams dropped down. I'd imagine Real Betis, USG and Ajax (history more than current form) will make it onto that list at the very least..

Wouldn’t the fact that those teams have a play-off to get through mean their odds will be long(er) compared to the teams already through to the last 16?

One thing I really like is that those would all be proper European games.

I can’t see the two Maccabis hosting UEFA games again this season. Haifa played their last two home group games in Larnaca & Budapest, Tel Aviv played their’s in Serbia.

Probably depends on the individual team and circumstances e.g. see Frankfurt. I don't think our odds would lengthen much if we had to play the additional round.

True Dave, but most of them will be a step up from what we have faced so far.

Draw today - Fri - I presume? Am wondering if two draws will be made actually, such that we know which play-off tie's winners we will be playing

Should be, but there do look some tricky away legs in there.
