It's that time of year again. We're just over two weeks away from the first qualifying round of the Europa League, and around a month from when Dundalk enter the Champions League second qualifying round. How does everyone feel about the upcoming campaigns for our representatives? As a City fan, I'd be delighted with a run like last season's run.

It depends on the draw really, certainly in the Europa League and who will be in each 'group'. I can't see Derry or Shams doing anything, with a bit of luck in the draw City might get through a round or two.
There are some very tough teams for Dundalk too and it would be hard to see the current team beating someone like BATE. You would have to imagine drawing FH again or someone like Sheriff would be their best bet. |

Best of luck to all the LOI clubs in the draw. I can only look forward to the day when my own club are there.
Cork with Maguire for July could do damage. I've a hunch that Derry might do something also, they've really steadied the ship. Can't see Dundalk doing much this year unfortunately.

The list of Dundalk's opponents, I forgot this was broken down regionally too. FH have to be the best bet again.

I'd say anything other than FH from the main group would be a nightmare for Dundalk. Outside of the main group, Qarabag or Sheriff wouldn't be too bad, but I could be wrong, I don't know much about them. From a City perspective, assuming the regional groups and seedings are the same as last time, I'd say Crusaders or Ventspils would seem like an okay draw Edited by adineen98 - 14 Jun 2017 at 12:47am |

I think there will be one other seeded team added to their group and it will most likely be Legia or BATE, just from what I read elsewhere. I wouldn't give them much chance against Qarabag anyway, a team full of internationals with plenty of European experience and a very difficult trip also.

Real pity City are likely to be missing so many. The team of right now would give it a good bash especially with the form they're in.
Take out Maguire, O'Connor and Delaney (all likely to be gone after the first European round) and it's a different team

Maguire is here until the end of July so that would be half way though the third round, wouldn't it!? The other 2 are not clear yet. |

Thats the trouble although Maguire is staying until the end of july, can't see burton not wanting delaney back either, he's been first class for us to be fair and has a great future ahead of him

Expectation at Rovers is through at least one round but thanks to Kenny we have lost our seeding.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017–18_UEFA_Europa_League Some tough opponents in there though. Some impossible to lose. So it's down to the draw. |

It's not regionalised this year.

After last years highs can't help but feel this year could be a mare for us, you really would have to hope fo FH again and even then that could be too much for us with the way we are playing

Will be tough for Dundalk, have to feel they need FH AIK (SWE) 9.945 Shakhtyor Soligorsk (BLR) 7.475 KR ReykjavÃk (ISL) 5.175 Lyngby (DEN) 4.800 Levadia Tallinn (EST) 4.050 the options for CIty, Shams got the best group and can draw Crusaders or St Johnstone

Dundalk get Rosenborg
Not LOI related, but Celtic could play Linfield! That'll be one to watch! Edited by adineen98 - 19 Jun 2017 at 11:33am |
