Does anyone know when the draw is for the group stage?

Also does anyone have the list of seedings?
Click to expand...

The draw is going to take place on Friday, 29th August

I don't know the entire rank..... I just know that JUVE is 17th (penalyzed by the 2 years out because of forced absence)

17th means we're the first ones of the third group: that' d mean we'll face not only one of the first group (Man. UN. , Barca, Chelsea, ...) but also another strong team (in the second team there are Real Madrid, Bayern Monaco too )

So it may happen an iron-group with MAN Un, Real MADRID and JUVE !!!:
we have been waiting long time to be back in big european matches...... but we would not dislike a softer group. Also other team would not like to have us as third in their group

The only chance is to expect one of the teams who precede us in the seeding will be eliminated in the qualifying: Barça and Liverpoll did well in the first-leg.......... but there is also SHALKE 04, who is 16th in the seeding just a few points more than us (something like 16,950 against 17,050)..... they had a bad draw for the qualifying taking the worst team possible (Atletico MADRID): they won 1-0 at home and now are going to play in the Vicente Calderon stadium

we'll see.......

Are Madrid in the 2nd seeding group then?

TBH I think it would be better if they had 8 top seeds and then thats it. It would make the draw a lot more exciting and create more upsets.

Yes, Real MADRID are in the second group:
they've been sent off 4 consecutives times in the 1/8 ........ so they've not got a good amount of points
