[Demitri_C]

Which grounds give the highest away allocation? Anyone know?

Probably the bigger capacity stadiums like bernabeau or nou camp

Barcelona are playing elsewhere mate while they do up the ground for the next two years.

Useless kit-stealing twats.

Oh really didnt know that! Doesnt make the game away as appealing if we have to play them be great if that was at villa park

[Bad English]

Barcelona are playing in the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium while the renovation work takes place.

They are due back in the Camp Nou at the end of November 24, albeit at 50% capacity, which is around 60,000 seats.

Source. Gooooooooogle.

I think you get about 3,800 seats at the Bernabau which is the highest allocation for an away game barring a final appearance.

We could be in for some epic nights this season

I'd be happy with a mix - We're not going to win it, but we need the last 16/quarters to be achievable.

Saw an article based on the maths behind the new format, and the guy that came up with it reckons that 7-8 points should be enough to progress to at least the playoff stage. Based on that, I'd say throw the heavyweights at us from Pots 1 and 2, then give us winnable games from Pots 3 and 4.

This is what I'm hoping for:

Pot 1 - Madrid (A), Barca (H)
Pot 2 - AC Milan (A), Juve (H)
Pot 3 - Celtic (A), Young Boys (H)
Pot 4 - Whoever are the shittest!

Trips to Madrid, Milan and Glasgow, plus qualification to the knockouts is all achievable here alongside some blockbuster away trips I reckon!

Pot 4 - Whoever are the shittest!

You already named them - Celtic

Ah, but they're somehow in Pot 3   😉

^Also worth noting that aside from not being able to face any other English club in the group stage, we can't draw any more than 2 opponents from the same country.

...for which we'd get 5,200, the rest all going to UEFA's corporate partners.

[ADVILLAFAN]

Actually think Barca would be one of the easier Pot 1 teams that we could draw.

Wouldn't mind drawing Slovan Bratislava 8 times, think we'd get through then....

I wouldnt want those pot 1 and 2 as its unlikely we would qualify and get 0 points from those 4. Rather have one tough and one possible get something e.g Leizpig

Celtic park will be tough place to go id rather have that one at home if need be

[Dogtanian]

For the final time I think, does anyone know when the draw is?
