[Litmanen]

Knowing our luck we'll somehow get Barcelona

I'd like to see us not get Atletico, that's about it.

[totsreds08]

Pot 2 is stronger than pot 1.

[El Pibe D'Oro]

Can teams from same countries get each other next round?

When us the draw?

[totsreds08]

20th if December is the draw but I'm unsure about playing teams from the same country for the next round.

[The Kop]

No clubs from same country can play each other next round also can't be drawn against team from same group.
ie, Liverpool avoid Anzhi, Newcastle and Spurs from pot 2.

[BTAC]

Would love for us to get Leverkusen.

Unless you're Sepp Blatter in disguise.

No hate the old codger & his gallic twat Platini.
Just thought that if we were to play a team that tries to play attractive passing football, it would be an exciting tie, spurs don't have far to travel & both teams have a good chance to progress.
Better than getting Bate Borisov , Dnipro or Cluj...wee bit chilly over there & have lumps kicked out of you!

Very true, not good places to go at this time of year.

[Captain Obvious]

both teams have a good chance to progress.

It's highly unlikely both will progress.

[Armageddon]

both teams have a good chance to progress.

It's highly unlikely both will progress.

Obviously only one will progress captain flog....but either can progress further with probably Inter in the next round.
Both Lyon & Spurs are good quality & half a chance in this comp.
