G51 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Stinking draw for Celtic. Milan and Lille will be favourites to go through. Tough enough draw for us too. Benfica are a great team, Liege and Poznan are teams we should beat though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepundit Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Rangers in pot 3 got the easiest group Certainly easier than our group from last season. Still some difficult games in there but you’d expect Rangers to have a great chance of getting through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamBragg Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Coming at it from a neutral standpoint it is pretty ironic how being in pot 1 can get such a hard group and pot 3 gets the easier draw. Personally think both will finish second but equally possible for them to finish bottom. I'm in that category of people who usually get asked who do you really support when telling people who I support! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had Rennes and Lazio last season who were better than Ac Milan and Lille so it's a good group to be in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJF Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Interesting groups for both teams, Celtic definitely getting the harder draw on paper. I think at this stage though, both teams shouldn't really have any fear against any of the sides they've drawn. Which says a lot about how far we've come since that night of Pedro in a hedge after being eliminated by Progres. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottish football nationally and domestically is at the minnow level (domestic teams just a teensy bit slightly less so). -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I thought Sevco would have been group stage fodder last season and they did incredibly well. Wouldn't write them off again here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottish football nationally and domestically is at the minnow level (domestic teams just a teensy bit slightly less so). We might well be, but that doesn’t change my opinion. Considering the teams that we (and Celtic) have overcome recently, there shouldn’t be any fear factor. Of course, there will be teams better than us, but not to the extent we should fear a hiding. And the Scottish performances in recent European campaigns have us sitting 13th in the coefficient standings (out of 55) and we currently have the joint most coefficient points earned by any country so far this season. Minnows right enough. Edited October 2, 2020 by AJF 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I'd prefer Rangers to draw Spurs than Gent. Makes sense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve McQueen Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 The smaller clubs in Scotland are asked to play to their seeding.The same must apply to Celtic & we should expect them to win the group. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
