I'm sorry - but aren't the pots done based on previous CL performances? If so, how in the hell is RM in Pot 2? 

It's last season's CL and EL winners and the champions of the top six leagues (based on 2018 coefficients) in Pot 1.

Ah, well someone is going to get really screwed this year. 

Imagine a Liverpool, RM, Inter, and RB Leipzig xD

Partly. That's what the co-efficient helps towards. 

But as @nudge says, 2 European winners + 6 highest-rated league winners.

Also, I'm assuimg that last Pot 2 spot is between Lyon and Ajax? There isn't another team left in the playoffs that come close IMO.

I left it as TBC as Lyon could end up in Pot 3 if Ajax qualify. Lot of permutations which will be decided by Wednesday evening:)

yeah that's what i expected. Our pot will be solely dependent on Ajax. 

So let's go APOEL xD

Hoping for a slightly easier draw this year. Being in pot 1 obviously will help that. Benfica from pot 2 would be sound. Looking at the potential pot 3 and 4 teams, Brugge and Prague would be ideal if they come through their ties tonight.

I'd say for Liverpool that best case would be Benfica, Dinamo Zagreb, Genk.

Worst case would be Real Madrid, Valencia/Inter, Galatasaray/RB Leipzig.

Fucking Group A is absurd. H is easiest by far, and C with Lyon would be a tough draw. 

haha

Group B is probably the most evenly matched (+ Genk).

@Stan I’d take that group tbf

Yeah you'd definitely qualify.

Group G easy for Man City. 

D or H probably most difficult. 

That would be fun for Lyon. I'd love a matchup against Ajax as they aren't who they were last year and think we might could qualify.

Assuming Ajax win today, thus putting Lyon in Pot 3, the most ideal draw would certainly be Zenit, Shakhtar, Lyon, and Slavia

For Chelsea, it would be pretty hysterical if they drew Real Madrid (For Hazard), and Inter MIlan (For Conte)

I'd love for us to draw Dinamo or Red Star Belgrade, not because they are "easy opponents but because i am 6 hours drive away from each cities. However knowing my luck it will be Real or Atletico from pot two, Lyon from pot three or Lokomotiv from pot four.
