The way you are miles above the other teams in pot 3 is almost embarrassing I wouldn't want to be the two teams in pot 1 and 2 that will get you in their group.

Any significants to the pots?

A group is made up of one team from each pot, so the better your pot (e.g. 1 or 2), the weakest the teams you'll have to face at group stage will be (theoretically.) Pots are decided based on the league's collective European coefficient and on the specific team's European history. So yours is simply based on the Premier League European coefficient applied to 6th place in the league. It's the same system as the Champions League.

Man there are some names in there! Still can't believe we will potentially be sparing on the pitch against the likes of Ajax, Roma, PSV, Marseille and Sporting. Madness

 

[Yes Chef]

Shame Monaco are out , far nicer then a trip to Germany or Scotland

Nope

And competing.

Hopefully we might be up against some Champions League dropouts too, in later stages.

 

[The Fits]

Ajax, Betis, Antwerp..group of death but would love that.

Whichever teams we draw, we have to wish for teams with large capacity stadiums.... Leverkusen and Atalanta for example are 20k and 30k respectively... ticket allocation to the Albion will not meet demand at all ... so Sporting, Ajax and Roma may offer the best Pot 1 chance for me as a MyAlbion+ member with decent points.

You're right, I'd forgotten about that. What a ride this is going to be.

Soooo Exciting

 

[dwayne]

I love the fact that we are in pot 3 which is definitely the least interesting (bar USG). All 3 other pots have decent sized teams in.

 

[PeterT]

I would love a trip to Azerbaijan but looks like we will be in the same pot.

Failing that, Toulouse away while I am out there for the Rugby World Cup would be good!

 

[dwayne]

Yes pot 4 Toulouse best stadium by a stretch possibly followed by Freiburg that has a very boring functional German design.

If we get any of the other teams in pot 4 gonna be near impossible to get tickets. And I'm presuming Ukraine will be no go only for the very brave (although that would surely put you in the top echelon of supporter if you could make that)

The Serbia pot 4 team has a capacity of 4500 ....that would equate to 225 tickets for us I think. However it is near Belgrade and there are frequent cheap flights from Heathrow

Easy to go down a rabbit hole looking at all the permutations and day dreaming about it.

Any chance of someone adding Stadium capacities to that graphic?

 

[Washie]

I never thought I'd be so excited for a European draw. So looking forward to 1st September

These are the stadium capacities - Anfield will hold an impressive 123,000 after the redevelopment is completed!

 

[Official Old Man]

What happens AFTER the league games? Who gets relegated to Conference, who goes home and is it a league or knockout? Do the UCL clubs join then?
