Blackhawk Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 After the cup final it became official. PAOK will begin the European campaign in 2nd qualifying round of UEFA Europe Conference League. PAOK will be seeded in all the draws all the way to the group stage. You can follow the seedings in ECL in this link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zpt5J7mz3t-53slOYtKzijZrZYCF39aHWd7MvZu-t1U/edit#gid=1919046645 We should not really have any problems in the 2nd and 3rd qualifying rounds, but in the playoff round we could end up playing against Fiorentina or Cologne. Qualifying Round 2 games are scheduled for July 21 and 28. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Eagle Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Here are the teams we can draw on June 15th. Teams with a * are assumed to win their Q1-tie against an opponent with a lower coefficient. Before the draw subgroups are prepared. Last year there where nine subgroups. This means that one of the teams from the nine highest coefficients (Viking .... AIK Stockholm) will be a possible opponent. One from Maccabi Netanya ... Breidablik, etc. We better avoid the Nordic countries with their up and running summerleagues. And Konya, Aris Limassol/Lemesos and the Polish participants. Viking Stavanger Nor 5.450 Lillestrøm SK Nor 5.450 Viborg FF Den 5.435 Konyaspor Tur 5.420 Aris Limassol Cyp 5.275 FC Drita * Kos 5.000 Ararat-Armenia Arm 5.000 Dinamo Minsk * Bls 5.000 AIK Stockholm Swe 5.000 Maccabi Netanya Isr 4.875 B36 Torshavn * Far 4.750 IF Elfsborg Swe 4.575 Djurgårdens IF Swe 4.575 Petrocub Hîncesti * Mol 4.500 FK Liepaja * Lat 4.500 Europa FC * Gib 4.500 Partizani Tirana * Alb 4.250 Breidablik * Isl 4.000 HB Torshavn * Far 4.000 Gzira United * Mlt 4.000 Levski Sofia Bul 3.900 Botev Plovdiv Bul 3.900 Milsami Orhei * Mol 3.750 Kauno Zalgiris * Lit 3.500 Gabala FK Azb 3.500 Sepsi OSK Rom 3.430 Zira FK Azb 3.400 Kisvárda FC Hun 3.275 Puskás Akadémia Hun 3.275 Bala Town * Wal 3.250 Tre Penne * Sma 3.250 Crusaders Belfast * Nir 3.250 St Joseph's FC * Gib 3.250 Raków Czestochowa Pol 3.175 Pogon Szczecin * Pol 3.175 Lechia Gdansk * Pol 3.175 FK Kyzylzhar Kaz 3.150 NK Koper Slo 3.000 FC Gomel Bls 2.500 Velez Mostar Bos 2.000 Valmieras FK Lat 2.000 Racing Union Luxembourg Lux 2.000 Patrick's Athletic Irl 1.625 Vllaznia Shkodër Alb 1.600 Makedonija GjP Mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutch Eagle Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 A tough pre-draw: Group 8 Seeded 1 PAOK (GRE) 2 Rijeka (CRO) 3 Vitória SC (POR) 4 Čukarički (SRB) 5 Laçi (ALB) / Iskra Danilovgrad (MNE) Unseeded 6 Djurgårdens (SWE) 7 Floriana (MLT) / Petrocub-Hincesti (MDA) 8 Levski Sofia (BUL) 9 Puskás Akadémia (HUN) 10 Racing FC Union Luxembourg (LUX) The Swedes the real club to avoid.

Blackhawk Posted June 14, 2022 Author Share Posted June 14, 2022 The winner of the Floriana - Petrocub or Racing Union would be a good draw. Hopefully we can avoid Djurgardens. Given our luck however, that will be the opponent we will get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackhawk Posted June 15, 2022 Author Share Posted June 15, 2022 The draw could have been better (Union), but also worse (Djurgardens). If we really want to make our minimum goal (group stage), than we should not be worried about the caliber of the teams that were our possible opponents. If we don't go into the two games prepared both physically and mentally, than we will pay for it. Recent past (Ostersud) proves it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pash Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Team list has been published. To me, the only surprise is Murg - but we have the right to make a few changes, and don't be surprised if Narey takes his place.

Dutch Eagle Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 UEFA reveiled the pre-groups for the Q3 draw but they made a mistake (or epic fail as there was a fail in the champions path too) as we are in group 3 and group 5. I think we are in 5 as Basel and AZ are in group 3 too. 3 of the 5 topseeds in one group is not possible. I like the unseeded in group 5 better btw. Group 3 Seeded Basel (SUI) / Crusaders (NIR) Tuzla City (BIH) / AZ (NED) Royal Antwerp (BEL) / Drita (KOS) Levski Sofia (BUL) / PAOK (GRE) Unseeded Pogoń Szczecin (POL) / Brøndby (DEN) Dundee United (SCO) Saint Patrick's Athletic (IRL) / Mura (SVN) Seinäjoki (FIN) / Lillestrøm (NOR) Group 4 Seeded PFC Zire (AZE) vs Maccabi Tel-Aviv (ISR) Botev Plovdiv (BUL) vs APOEL (CYP) Saburtalo (GEO) vs FCSB (ROU) Gli Vicente (POR) Wolfsberger (AUT) Unseeded Ružomberok (SVK) vs Riga (LVA) Kyzylzhar Petropavlovsk (KAZ) vs Osijek (CRO) Víkingur (FRO) vs Dunajská Streda (SVK) Gzira United (MLT) vs Radnicki (SRB) Gomel (BLR) vs Aris Thessaloniki (GRE) Group 5 Seeded Twente (NED) Molde (NOR) vs Elfsborg (SWE) Rapid Wien (AUT) vs Lechia Gdańsk (POL) Hapoel Beer-Sheva (ISR) vs Dinamo Minsk (BLR) Levski Sofia (BUL) vs PAOK (GRE) Unseeded Lugano (SUI) Kairat Almaty (KAZ) vs Kisvarda (HUN) Aris Limassol (CYP) vs Neftçi (AZE) Velež (BIH) vs Hamrun Spartans (MLT) Racing FC Union Luxembourg (LUX) vs Čukarički (SRB) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pash Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 I think I'd rather be in group 5, though group 3 only has Brondby as a potential problem. And we know how much of a roadblock they were last time haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhawk Posted July 17, 2022 Author Share Posted July 17, 2022 Even then I would like to avoid them. And Lillestrom too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Eagle Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 UEFA corrected the info (messing up Levski and CSKA) on their website and as expected, Levski/PAOK are in group 5, CSKA Sofia/Makedonija are in group 3. So it is one of: Lugano (SUI) Kairat Almaty (KAZ) vs Kisvarda (HUN) Aris Limassol (CYP) vs Neftçi (AZE) Velež (BIH) vs Hamrun Spartans (MLT) Racing FC Union Luxembourg (LUX) vs Čukarički (SRB) I’d rather avoid Kairat (as travelling some timezones ain’t fun) and Aris (for their name and they might just rise to the occasion as they play a club from the motherland).

I would also avoid Neftchi Baku. It will be hot in Azerbaijan in the middle of the summer. Hopefully we can avoid Lugano as they are the highest rated teams from the unseeded half. So in other words Velez or Cukaricki would be ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
