Europa League draw

[GreenArmyyy!]

Evening folks,

I apologise if this has been covered already but I've just been given authorisation to get time off work for whenever the away leg is.... 23 years old and didn't think Malmo was a great idea price wise last time, this will be my first European away trip so I am a bit excited!

Just wondering if we will definitely find out our opponents on Monday or will it be a case of Hibernian v team1/team2 depending on who gets through the first round?

If it is the former does anyone have a list of who we can draw?

Thanks in advance!

It could be Hibs v the winners of a round 1 tie but at the same time it could be a straight Hibs v a team from round 2. No guarantee's either way. Best hope we draw a seeded team from round 2

I take it though we might not know the opponent we would know which leg is the home/away leg?

Thanks for the info Tam!

Christ that's not good, so we may not find out who our away leg is until 7 days before the tie...

Yes of course, it would be Hibs v XXX/XXX or XXX/XXX v Hibs. As normal the team drawn first would be the home side

My dying wish is to see Hibs play Manchester United in a European tie. This is the year

Don't want to play a European Tie in Manchester. A whole load of English Hooligans will turn up dressed as Hibs Fans and cause bother.

You can download the Europa Cup App and watch the draw live on Monday. It explains seedlings and how the draw is made.

"The 2016/17 UEFA Europa League season begins on Monday with the first qualifying round streamed live fron Nyon, followed at 14:30CET by the second qualifying round draw. The full list of entries, seedings and restrictions will be confirmed ahead of the draw ceremony."

[Leitherhibs]

Will the away leg be week of 21/7 does anyone know?

I'm praying we get one of the seeds so we know for certain who were playing or it's going to be a logistical nightmare and mega expensive at such short notice.

It'll only be known on Monday in which order the two legs will take place.

Downloaded the app and tried to make sense of it but to no avail.

Why the **** can they no just chuck everyone in the hat and be done with it? Between that, the 'ceremony', the effing about and all the crap that goes on with a draw in Switzerland I'll be turning my phone back on at 4 in the hop we've got a tidy away day out of it.

All about making sure a reasonable number of teams from the bigger countries make it through to the ground stages so that the TV rights can be sold for a higher price.

If memory serves me right, last time we were drawn to Malmö or an Irish team (can't remember who). We took the risk and booked early assuming Malmö went through. Paid off big time in terms of money saved, but it was a bit nervy after a 0-0 first leg.

My 14 year old son has researched this to death. He's told me all I have to is follow his travel instructions and book it after the draw is made.

That's right! I think some boys ended up just going on the razz in Dublin??

Not going to be able to make it wherever we end up, so am going to be jealous of everyone who goes, wherever is is we go.

Should the Irish team had gone through then our plan was to go there via Malmö 😂

Drogedha I think

There`s a possibility of Hearts being at home on the same night as us IF they get through first round of qualifying . Or order of our matches being changed if opponents have local rivals drawn at home on same date . Maybe something to take into account before making any travel plans .

They may shift a match to the Tuesday in such cases.

Alternatively one match may be a 18:00 kick off and the other 20:05.

I'd love a tie against an Irish, northern Irish or Welsh team tbh

[Cod Boy]

I think the non seeds are home in the first leg.Which would mean Hibs would be home and if Hearts get through they would be away.

None of them are seeded. The only way that Hibs could get them in the draw if one of them beat a seeded team in the First Qualifying Round.

Incorrect. 50/50 chance of being drawn home or away first leg.
