With a little luck Atromitos could reach the GS.

Drawing Swiss Young Boys or Maccabi Tel Aviv.

When it is a Borussia Dortmund or so it will be over and done.

Looked at the lineups for that game and i see K. Stamatopoulos who is the Goalie for the Canadian National Team.

 

Problem is he is a backup and playing for AIK in Sweden.    You wonder why Canada never makes the World Cup. 

 

Anyway good on him , he is probably the only Greek Canadian to ever make it to the pros

The criteria are the UEFA-coefficients. A Dutch guy keeps them updated before UEFA itself does.

Next round in EL 44 teams participate. 22 with the highest coefficient are seeded, the other 22 unseeded. Just before the draw itself there will be groups formed of equal seeded and unseeded teams to avoid clashes of the same FA or rival countries (Russia-Ukraine / Serbia-Croatia / Armenia-Turkey).

Look at this for the seeding:

Sometimes a club is lucky and is promoted to the seeded side of the list. But Atromitos won't as they are way back in line.

West Ham might be lucky when for example Trabzonspor were to be eliminated.

You can also be unlucky when a higher seeded team in CL gets eliminated in round 3 by a team with a coefficient lower than your team and moves to the EL.

Southampton will be unlucky if Partizan eliminates Steaua Bucharest.

If Lech Poznan were to beat Basel there won't be a change in seeding as both team have already a higher coefficient than Southampton.

But there are dozens more that will be confirmed tomorrow, so who knows, really. The above were all champions league dropouts.
