Not quite upon us yet but Celtic haven't made it though the qualifiers - beaten by AEK Athens over two legs.
They now need to win a play off just to squeeze into the Europa League.
From today's Guardian ...
Tougher draw in line for Liverpool
Benfica’s 2-1 aggregate win over Fenerbahce means Liverpool still face the prospect of a tough draw. Benfica take on the Greek side PAOK Salonika, who have already knocked out FC Basel and Spartak Moscow to progress to the play-off round, for a place in the competition proper.
The result means Liverpool, the highest-ranked third seeds, could find themselves in Pot 3, rather than the more favourable Pot 2, for the group stage draw that takes place on 30 August.
