Darren Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 (edited) Playing Minsk in Azerbaijan makes it more of a banana skin but the schedule has been relatively kind. Pot 6 team away first, weakest of the higher pots at home second and pot 5 at home last. Obviously wouldn't bank on it at the moment, but we could be in with a real shout after two games if we can get our act together. Four points would likely leave us having to 'just' beat Petrocub at home. Heidenheim at home I don't fancy, might be a damage limitation job. But Killie, who have even worse results than us in the league, have shown both Cercle Bruges and Copenhagen aren't amazing. I think we'd look back on this as a real missed opportunity if we don't make the playoffs. Given what happened against Plzen and the general malaise at the moment, the fear is that's what happens. But I'm choosing to be optimistic and blindly looking at potential trips in February. Edited September 4 by Darren 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm choosing to be optimistic and blindly looking at potential trips in February. It's far from a gimme but it would definitely be a missed opportunity. We managed 6 points off the lower seed last time and doing the same again would give us a great chance. Lack of goals is the big concern. The way the team is set up I think we're more likely to be able to get a draw away to Brugge than we are to comfortably beat Minsk or Petrocub, but draws aren't much use unless we can get a couple of wins. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
