Glens had a pile of chances and could have been 2 or 3 up by that point. This game has all the ingredients for a classic Scottish premature knockout. A team playing awful football, the opponent coming off a high, game is away etc. Seen this match before. You are forgetting that we are going to click soon.

tarapoa Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 (edited) 2 hours ago, Bob Mahelp said: I agree. Progres have a better recent European pedigree that Viking. It's a tricky tie, but Norwegian football is live on BT Sport and a few games aside the quality isn't great. Viking are 10th in the league and struggling. Viking did beat Molde yesterday, and the latter have horsed Celtic and Hibs in recent times. Progres would have been a much easier draw. As Fola showed vs us too, Lux teams are now a banana skin in early July in QR1 - but I couldn't see a problem with half a dozen games under our belt in cooler mid September temperatures.

Marten Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 They will aye. Regardless, they'll be unseeded in the playoff round.There will be 16 teams in the PO round and only 5 seeds, so there are 3 ties between unseeded teams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even then, the potential seeded teams don't look up to much - Ferencvaros, Midjtylland, Molde, Dynamo Brest and Omonia are the projected seeds at the minute. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillips455 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 For us (Motherwell) i think the Bačka Topola (SRB) or FCSB (ROU) tie is the only winnable one. The other ties i would ex0ect Basel, Copenhagen and Hapoel Beer-Sheva to win and i doubt we would be able to beat anybof them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And why wouldn't they after last week and what Well has been like so far? But to act like Well is already done when the foe is a semi-pro team that didn't win the Northern Ireland league is a bit silly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illgresi Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 What a pile of shite man. Everyone else get a bunch of diddies and we get the 31st and 39th ranked teams.

We all want to progress are far as possible but that is fantasy for all sides outside Old Firm. Since UEFA has seeds and non seeds to make sure all the big boys get to the latter stages. Corrupt to the core. All I would say is if Motherwell are going to lose I would rather lose to PSV or Sporting Lisbon than Hapoel Beef Sheva or even Copenhagen. Then again don’t suppose it matters as we are not allowed to attend either way. Only thing with it being a 1 legged affair a chance to fluke a win. Not likely for Motherwell as we cannot fluke a win in the SPFL but u never know. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectre Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Trying to be optimistic but I believe we would get their seeding for the play off round if we were to qualify. We would likely have to play a team like this anyway if we wanted to get to the group stages. Obviously we would be underdogs against malmo PSV or sporting. But are they at a different level to a team like Celtic? I’d certainly feel that we would have a chance at home. Sporting would be the toughest I reckon. PSV also strong although they lost to Osijek at this round 3 years ago, malmo would be the least hard but their recent history against Scottish teams would suggest another tough tie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was an Aberdeen player the chance to play PSV or Sporting would be a great motivation and even though it is behind closed doors an away tie to them would be a great occassion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I'd like to think if I was an Aberdeen player I'd want to simply win to get as far in the competition as possible regardless of the opponent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charger29 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Tough group for Aberdeen but it is what it is. You can't really complain much given it's the 3rd round.Just look at all the seeded teams in the round. Almost all of them would comfortably beat Aberdeen. The lowest seeds are Rijeka ffs, a team that beat them 4-0 on aggregate a year ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
