The Champions League is starting soon. I invite my friends to communicate in this thread about this event. Who are your favorites? Will there be a sensation this year? and in general we share our impressions, discuss the matches.
three clubs from our country will participate this year. I bet with a friend (of course I was not sober) on a bottle of high-quality tequila that Krasnodar will qualify for the quarter finals. I know that my chances are slim to win this dispute, but still all happens. friends tell us who is participating from your countries.
I see no prerequisites for Krasnodar to enter the group stage of the Champions League. although of course I will be for them, as for any club from Russia. in general, your dispute is not equivalent if Krasnodar reaches the quarterfinals you should have at least a tequila box and I am talking about the Europa League))).ulgromkii said:

Flora? Lucky? in Europa League? You must be having a laugh - you probably know very well in what situation our NT is and let me remind you like 5-6 players come from Flora ...
They may be indeed got decent draw in EL - Reykjavik at home in second round and possible awaygame in third round against some malta/n.ireland team but believe me they dont reach EL 4th qualifying round 🙂
Therefore it is no miracle that in 22+ years in europe they have knocked out magnificent amount of teams - 2
.... Anyway looked which teams have already secured place in groupstage and which are still trying to get there. And it looks like it does not look good for our region because i would be like positively surprised if 3 (or more) teams from this region can actually make CL groupstage ...
It is now clear. football in Estonia is not particularly developed. we have to do something about it, that it’s impossible to put together one normal team, you need a person on enthusiasm, there are enough examples in history.Risto234 said:

It's too early for Chelsea to fight for CL this season. Many good transfers this summer do not mean that they will smash everybody during the season. They will need a lot of time to make a good strong team. But the best thing now is that they have the basic and now only the time will show if this team will become unbeatable. I hope they will give time and chance for Lampard and to do not expect to win trophies in the first season, because it is impossible. As a fan of the team, I will be very happy if we lift the trophy, but it will be a miracle if this team manage to win that kind of title in the first season of playing with that squad.

With Qarabag no - i believe they were in CL groupstage few seasons ago and maybe were even lucky enough to play with Atletico & Chelsea twice ...
Crvena Zvzeda - with them it is bigger surprise NOT seeing them in groupstage ...
However Molde reaching groupstage would be surprise indeed cause it is probably way too much time since norwegian team was in CL groupstage ...
