Oh, you started it, I was going to post this in the soccer catch all thread. Since this is here, here are the last games of the playoff round:

Aug 20/28 match-ups:
(C) CFR Cluj v Slavia Prague
(C) APOEL v Ajax
(L) LASK v Club Brugge

Aug 21/27 match-ups:
(C) Dinamo Zagreb v Rosenborg
(C) Young Boys v Red Star Belgrade
(L) Olympiacos v Krasnodar

(C)hampion Path, (L)eague Path

With the results before this, Pots 1 and 2 became set.
Pot 1: Liverpool, Chelsea, Barcelona, Man City, Juventus, Bayern Munich, PSG, Zenit St. Petersburg
Pot 2: Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, Shakhtar Donetsk, Tottenham, Benfica, Lyon

If my math is right, here is how Pots 3 and 4 are decided:

Qualified:
Pot 3:Bayer Leverkusen, Red Bull Salzburg, Valencia, Inter Milan, Lokomotiv Moscow, Olympiacos/Krasnodar winner
Pot 4: Galatasaray, RB Leipzig, Atalanta, Lille, LASK/Club Brugge winner, Young Boys/Red Star Belgrade winner

Pot 3 has the last 2 spots filled as follows:
Ajax and Dinamo Zagreb with wins
Genk (already in group stage) if Ajax or Dinamo Zagreb lose
Slavia Prague with a win and Ajax and Dinamo Zagreb both lose
APOEL with a win and Slavia Prague and Dinamo Zagreb both loss

CFR Cluj and Rosenborg will only qualify for Pot 4 if they win.

Yeah, turns out I was looking at the wrong UEFA standings. So I think this is the situation

Pot 1(set): Liverpool, Chelsea, Barcelona, Man City, Juventus, Bayern Munich, PSG, Zenit St. Petersburg

Pot 2: Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, Shakhtar Donetsk, Tottenham, Benfica
Ajax will make Pot 2 by advancing, if not Lyon gets the spot.

Pot 3:Bayer Leverkusen, Red Bull Salzburg, Valencia, Inter Milan, Lokomotiv Moscow, Olympiacos/Krasnodar winner
Dinamo Zagreb with a win
Lyon with a Ajax win
Genk (already in group stage) if Ajax or Dinamo Zagreb lose
Slavia Prague with a win and Ajax and Dinamo Zagreb both lose
APOEL with a win and Slavia Prague and Dinamo Zagreb both loss

Pot 4: Galatasaray, RB Leipzig, Atalanta, Lille, LASK/Club Brugge winner, Young Boys/Red Star Belgrade winner
CFR Cluj and Rosenborg will only qualify for Pot 4 if they win.

  • 2 weeks later...

So through yesterday were:

  • Dinamo Zagreb 3-1 over Rosenborg - their 2-0 home win was too much for Rosenborg to overcome
  • Red Star Belgrade 3-3 over Young Boys - 2 road goals were the difference
  • Olympiacos 6-1 over Krasnodor - a 4-0 home win will end a tie pretty quick

Pot 1: Liverpool, Chelsea, Barcelona, Man City, Juventus, Bayern Munich, PSG, Zenit St. Petersburg
Pot 2: Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, Shakhtar Donetsk, Tottenham, Benfica, ????
Pot 2/3: Lyon
Pot 3:Bayer Leverkusen, Red Bull Salzburg, Olympiacos, Valencia, Inter Milan, Dinamo Zagreb, ????, ????
Pot 3/4: Lokomotive Moscow
Pot 4: Genk, Galatasaray, RB Leipzig Red Star Belgrade, Atalanta, Lille, ????, ????

So today are the last 3 spots:

  • Slavia Prague v CFR Cluj (SP up 1-0)
  • Ajax v APOEL (0-0)
  • Club Brugge v LASK (CB up 1-0)
    All games kick off a 3 PM Eastern / 2 PM Central

The results have these implications:

  • Slavia Prague/CFR Cluj - winner goes into Pot 4.
  • Club Brugge/LASK - Club Brugge wins, they are in Pot 3, LASK wins they are in Pot 4
  • Ajax/APOEL - if Ajax wins, they are in Pot 2. If APOEL wins: Pot 3 with a LASK win, Pot 4 with a Club Brugge win.

Not playing, but scoreboard watching:

  • Lyon - Pot 2 with an APOEL win, Pot 3 with an Ajax win.
  • Lokomotive Moscow - Pot 3 with an APOEL win or LASK win, Pot 4 is both Ajax and Club Brugge win.

Oh boy, I see a Chelsea, Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan, and whomever in pot 4 is the longest trip.
Bayern forum ran draw simulation 50 million times...and atletico is the favorite for the 3 Epl teams in pot1 with city(16.13%) being highest followed by Liverpool(16.08) then chelsea(15.61%)

Spurs highest chance is barca(21.56%) and zenit (21.05%) psg,bayern and juventus at 19%
