Europa League - Slavia Prague in Round of 32

[StanSP]

Not a bad draw considering who else we could have got. 

 

Fixtures around the knockouts:

 

13th Feb - Liverpool (H) 

18th Feb - Prague (a) 

21st or 22nd Feb - Villa (a) 

25th Feb - Prague (H) 

28th Feb or 1st March - Arsenal (H) 

 

Very winnable tie!

Hahahahaa there are going to be the purveyors of swig that will be absolutely fuming at this, me being one of them. Imagine a gig in Prague for 3 nights following the Blue Army. Nice draw that.

Imagine if we could’ve gone there, I bloody love Prague and it’s amazing beer  

[Webbo]

Would have preferred somewhere warmer. A bit of nice weather in February would have been good for the players. 

[StanSP]

Some other great ties and glad we avoided. 

 

Benfica vs Arsenal 

Lille vs Ajax 

Real Sociedad vs Man Utd 

Braga vs Roma

Salzburg vs Villarreal

Absolute killer ennit. Pints (some of the best beer you'll ever taste) were 25p in some places when I went. Gorgeous city to boot too.

 

It'll be Pilsner Urquell, Staropramen and Budvar in front of the box this time instead though no doubt.

Not easy - they did spank the pride of Scotland 4-1 (twice).

Hopefully Luke Thomas doesn’t go on loan so he can face his long lost brother Petar Musa...

Does he play right wing  

[Stuntman_Mike]

Anyone else find the trip advisor app download itself onto their phone seconds after we draw a team away in Europe? We're being watched 

 

Gutted we can't go, but it's a great tie for the club 

[Ric Flair]

Whats an absolute joke is the breaking news article on The Athletic. Mentions Arsenal, Man Utd, Spurs and Rangers draws. We don't even get included in it. Clowns.

You want to get on the Slavia Prague Twitter page. There fans think they're gonna go right through us and into the last 16. 😂😂

I went and saw Slavia play years ago whilst on a stag piss do in their fine city. I think there was my four mates, 300 locals and 5 away fans. Sausage and beer at half time. Fun times!!

The English page just has West Ham fans living their European dream through Slavia

Slavia Prague were beaten in the #UCL qualifying round by Midtjylland and finished second in their #UEL group with 4 wins and two defeats.

They won the Czech League last season and one impressive #UCL result in November 2019 was a draw at Barcelona.

Really all over the place this lot. Also sold soucek and the full back who battled well against us to West Ham

[Ric Flair]

This will be double figures over 2 legs.

Bought two players off then this year didn’t they

[ThingsCouldGetMessi]

Watched Slavia Prague play in this competition a couple of years ago. They achieved the almost impossible by beating Sevilla over 2 legs. Sadly they've lost a few players since then but still deserve some respect. 

[RowlattsFox]

The thing about us that makes me think we can go far in this competition, is our ability away from home to score away goals. Could be massive, especially when we play away first.
