In his qualifying rounds European Conference League will begin her European journey AEK the new season, after the second place in which he finished last season.
With his post on Facebook, UEFA’s media consultant, Andreas Dimatosmade a first approach to the data for the qualifying matches of the “Union”, saying that the second and third rounds will be data for the strong.
On the other hand, however, if he manages to reach the playoffs, he emphasized that AEK will have hard workunderlining that he will have to wait for significant exclusions in order not to be among the underdogs in the draw.
In detail, the post of Andreas Dimatos:
“With the 15th best club coefficient, AEK will enter the battle of qualifying for the UEFA Conference League, which simply means that it will be given to the strong in the draw of the second and third qualifying rounds in which it will participate.
The best-known names of potential opponents that it will have in its first two draws will be found among the Norwegian Bran and Tromso, the Swedish Hacken, the Polish Slask Wroclaw, Levadia Tallinn, Ruzoberok in the second qualifier, while in the third qualifier add teams like the old familiar Spartak Trnava, the Scottish St. Mirren and Kilmarnock, the Hungarian Fehervar, the always reliable Brodby and Silkeborg from Denmark, the Swiss Zurich, Wisla Krakow, etc.
From there, however, the situation becomes difficult. In the playoffs, data drops to the 20th factor with the addition of Chelsea, Betis, Lance, Heidenheim and the representative of Italy and will go even lower with the addition of the teams from Europa (given some pairs even with the lowest factor will be above AEK) but also of Olympiakos (if they don’t win the Conference) and from there on it will depend on what will happen in countries like Israel or Bulgaria that haven’t finished the season yet…
This means that with the current data, AEK is not among the 19 teams of the strong group for the draw of the playoffs, in which there will of course be potential opponents perfectly suited to it as well as teams from the five major leagues.
Any hopes of AEK to catch up with the strong group in the playoffs are found in the second qualifier of the Conference. Where he wants there to be significant exclusions between the minimum 14 teams, which will have a better coefficient than the Union.
They often happen, but we will have to wait. At the moment, the limit of the strong ones in the playoffs of the competition is at 11,500 coefficient points, while AEK participates with 10,000… Something less than a European victory difference!».
