Europa League draw ( last 16)

[Bigeasy 292]

So how will this work? Will the winners of each group be seeded and play against the winners of the last 32 play -off round, or can we also draw some of the winners of each Europa league group? For example, could we draw Liverpool in the last 16, or is this not possible? Cheers!

Think it’s a free for all when it gets to that stage

We can’t draw any other group winners, all group winners are seeded in last 16

Cheers, mate. We should be capable of beating any of the play-off teams imo.

Wouldn’t worry about financially recovering, we get to Dublin we aren’t all coming back so don’t worry about beyond May

Really pleasing to be in the draw for this. Had pretty much prepared myself for the conference league before last night's game

At least they are getting used to riots in the city before we turn up. 

[siamthedanger 2,855]

Take any cunt we are winning this thing. 

[SK Rfc 557]

Also have the slight advantage of being at home in the second leg as group winners

I thought we were invading Dublin and reclaiming it for King Charles III...

When is the Europa League draw and where?

The Europa League knockout play-off draw will be held an hour later than the Champions League last-16 draw on Monday, 18 December at 12:00 GMT in Nyon, Switzerland.

How does the draw work?

Each runner-up from the Europa League group stages will be seeded and drawn against teams who finished third in the Champions League group stages, who are all unseeded. Teams cannot draw a club who are from the same country.
