We could potentially have a full house on the current dates if the dentist is true to his word (unlikely I know) Absolutely (although maybe not full) and I'm sure the club will be pushing to maintain the away leg first if it comes to that. Hopefully Breidablick win tonight anyway. Link to comment

Uefa might have some shite rule in place regarding no other European games clashing with Champions League or some tripe. There were some Europa and Conference games on Tues this week but obviously that canna happen next week with us playing Sunday. One game early and one game late in Vienna on Thurs would work if no away support maybe? If not one tie might be switched and likely Austria Vienna v us since the Rapid game is "bigger" being The Europa. 1 Link to comment

Malmo, Jablonec (3rd Czech), Galatasary, Rijeka and Breidablik for the scottish teams this week. It's a decent draw and weve got to make the most of it. Amazing to have five teams in the playoff round draws on monday, and obviously huns, celtic and saints are already guaranteed to be in a playoff round. Only us and hibs that have the pressure on Link to comment

fine-n-dandy Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Assume the Icelanders play on shitey plastic pitches as well. Could be a concern if so as had our games v Neeps been on plastic away first we really could have had a far tougher opponent going into second game. Been quite fortunate with order of play first round & potentially also quite fortunate in who we play next. Hopefully (if we get past Icelanders) we get continued fortune for play off round. Decent chance this season Link to comment

This genuinely could be our chance to reach groups and make some much needed income. Link to comment
afc1903mad Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Ok, as a result of last nights games, some of the potential seeded opponents have changed. Here's the potential teams we could face, draw to be on Monday AS Roma Ita 90.000 Tottenham Hotspur Eng 88.000 FC Basel ** Sui 49.000 FC København ** Den 43.500 Viktoria Plzen ** Cze 33.500 AA Gent ** Bel 26.500 Anderlecht *3 Bel 25.000 FK Astana ** Kaz 22.500 LASK *3 Aut 21.000 Feyenoord ** Ned 21.000 Qarabag FK ** Azb 21.000 Maccabi Tel-Aviv ** Isr 20.500 PAOK Thessaloniki *3 Gre 20.000 Stade Rennais Fra 19.000 Partizan Belgrade ** Srb 18.000 Hapoel Beer-Sheva ** Isr 17.500 Link to comment
afc1903mad Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Breidablik have a strong youth development structure, with the majority of their teams being filled with home gorwn talen. Theyve also produced some well known players to have played overseas (Gylfi Gigardson , Johan Gudmundsson, Alred Finnbogason). I also see that Thomas Mikkleson who used to play for Dundee Utd is their current striker Link to comment

Probably going to be underdogs in majority of fixtures but id give us a chance in the remaining games. Need to qualify against Icelandic team first I guess. Link to comment
Tord31 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 It will be interesting to see how Hibs fare against Rijeka and dealing with the Thursday/Sunday for the first three weeks of the season. I presume Rijeka will win so it'd be some result for Hibs to prevent that Link to comment
