Not
Don't hate but I want Liverpool to beat Basel and qualify. That way they can't mess up our EL run.

They'll go through and go out and we'll keep European football on Merseyside.
Not really sure on this scenario mate, Basle could give us a harder game if we drew them.
 
I completely forgot about that. Was that a CL game they were in or the same competition as us?
Feel sure they had one game reversed to 2nd leg at home - possibly in their run to the Europa Semis a few years back - it might have been the opponents having a local rival in the competition but it's happened - not forgetting all the Fairs Cups we missed.

In the round we played Sporting and had to play 6 pm because they were also drawn at home that didn't help us a great deal..

Celtic, Torino, FK Qarabag, Sparta Prague, Aalborg BK or Guingamp please.

Let the Spanish, Dutch and Turkish teams knock each other out, along with the CL dropouts, and we'll then finish off whoever's left standing.

Where is Qarabag anyway?
Qarabag is in Azerbaijan.....Where?:)
Aalborg is in Denmark..We played Aalborg in the Cup Winners Cup October 1966
0-0 away and won 2-1 at Goodison with Alan Ball and Johnny Morrisey the scorers ..
 
Pot 1 is the 12 Europa group winners joined by the 4 best ranked 3rd placed CL group teams in one pot.

Pot 2 is the 12 group runners up, joined by the other 4 3rd placed CL teams.

Pot 1 teams play Pot 2 teams.

We will be in pot 1. We cannot draw another English team at the Round of 32 stage (or Wolfsburg from the current group). The teams we could draw, as things stand are:

Villareal
Torino
Besiktas - qualified, could still finish top.
Celtic - qualified, will finish their group in 2nd.

PSV
FK Qarabag
Seville
Sparta Prague
Aalborg BK
Guingamp
Trabzonspor

Lower placed CL drop-downs in our pot:
Ajax
Athletico Bilbao
Anderlecht

If Liverpool finish 2nd in their group, CSKA Moscow will be added to this pot as a team we could draw.

From a travel aspect we don't want Trabzonspor. No direct flights, change at Istanbul and another hour up to the black sea. nightmare
 

It'll be one of these


Villareal,
Torino,
Besiktas,
Celtic,
PSV,
FK Qarabag,
Sevilla,
BSC Young Boys,
Aalborg BK,
PAOK Salonika,
Trabzonspor,
CSKA,
Ajax,
Anderlecht,
Schalke

Celtic please!!!
