GAMES Anderlecht may immediately face a tough task in the second qualifying round of the Europa League. Yet it will be crucial to get through this round. Last year it went wrong straight away against Häcken and the European campaign was over as early as August. Anderlecht will probably be seeded, although that is not yet certain.

At the moment the situation is as follows:

Seeded 

  • Braga
  • Ferencváros
  • Viktoria Plzn 
  • Midtjylland
  • PAOK
  • Qarabag
  • Maccabi Tel Aviv (uncertain as a seed)
  • Anderlecht (uncertain as a seed)
  • Pafos (uncertain as a seed)
Unseeded
  • Sheriff Tiraspol
  • Dynamo Kiev
  • Besiktas
  • Twente
  • Hajduk Split
  • Tromsø
  • St. Gallen
  • CSKA Sofia
  • Hammarby
Anderlecht must therefore hope to be seeded if it wants to avoid teams like Braga. But even as a seed it will need a favourable draw — Besiktas, Twente or Dynamo Kiev, for example, are by no means easy opponents.
