UEFA Champions League Qualifying Rounds 2018-19

I think clubs care more about the CL money than their league's coefficient.

Sure, but league coefficient leads to a better chance of getting that CL money in future years.

OK, let's miss out on the CL this year so we can potentially qualify for the CL another year.

PAOK with great football early and a great chance gone by.

PAOK scores!

Beautiful execution finished with a tap in by Prijović

Benfica level

PAOK keeper just did the dumbest thing I have ever seen.

 

[HajdukSplit]

That's probably it for PAOK, awful error by their keeper

 

[Milos Krasic]

Absolutely awful by Paschalakis

Mind blowing

Benfica will advance for sure now. Pot 3 it is.

Valencia could be vaulted into Pot 3 if Salzburg fails to advance, otherwise they're pretty much set.

Watch me jinx them but for once it seems Salzburg will make the CL since the Red Bull takeover, it would be an epic fail now if they don't do so...not only are they up 2 goals but completely dominating, Zvezda barely got out of their own half in the first half and have to open up now, something they don't like doing

 

[HajdukSplit]

Typical Red Bull

 

[Duddy]

What a bunch of chokers
Jesus christ

But at least a bunch of racist garbage gets to play in the CL.

 

[HajdukSplit]

Good news for them is Austria get an automatic spot in next season's CL...knowing their luck they will lose the league now

 

[Eye of Ra]

i had to use headphones in the paok-benfica game, the paok fans woke up everyone sleeping in my house, best fans in the world.

and lol salzburg failing again, time to go back to their roots....(austria salzburg)

The Dutch are in huge trouble coefficient wise. They might even lose the second team in CL

red star has world class fans even thought they are racists.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

I think Valencia goes through regardless of their group... with them in pot 4 and LFC in pot 3. We might be in for some great mates in the group stages.

Valencia got up to pot 3 thanks to Red Star winning.

Don't see a group of Barca/Roma/Hoffenheim as a cake walk group for Liverpool. That's weird overconfidence.

Beat one of those teams easily last year. Also beat another although not as easily.

So, no. Wouldn't be worried about that. PSG/Dortmund/Liverpool/Inter would be a lot harder but I'd still expect to advance.

You seem way too confident. Plenty of good teams have failed to qualify in tricky groups.
That's not to say Liverpool wouldn't advance obviously, but you seem to think they'd advance regardless of their opponents which is Curt level stuff.

No. The fact is that most of those teams aren't great opponents.

It's not like we're talking about them playing Barca and PSG in the same group because after all they can't. That would be a quick way to have a strong possibility of not advancing.

Roma on the other hand is a tough opponent they should beat and Hoffenheim is not too difficult. Barring bad injuries they should advance past those teams as they've shown they can beat both quite badly.

 

[Evilo]

Hoffenheim and Inter are no easy games.
