Only top 1 in each group qualifies for the next round.   
 

Second place in each group have to go into a play-off round against losing Europa League teams.

Well it wouldn't be a UEFA competition by adding another layer of complexity to it.

Wouldn't be surprised if eventually the fourth-place team in the CL group stages ends up rocking up to the Conference League one day.

I think they've gone the other way tbh that from next season there's no dropping down from EL after the groups.

This years 3rd place teams though. They are the wildcards.

Europa League Draw is taking place. TV scheduling and kick off time wise we'll be 'paired' with one of Liverpool, Brighton and West Ham. I think it will mean when we are at home they'll be away and that sort of thing for a Thursday night.

 

Yep, looks like we were essentially paired with Liverpool, i.e, same kick-off times as them, so will be placed in one of Groups E-H.

Going by that TV criteria, we definitely now can't draw Club Brugge, Lille or Lugano.

Turkey, Zagreb maybe Legia. AZ thugs attacked West Ham families last season in the stands

Frankfurt have been causing trouble too
