Kazan will be tough. Good side with some good results in Europe last few years.
Zulte Waregem are a middling team who had a good season, beatable.
Maribor, very successful in Slovenia but beatable.
I think we could be anything from losing all 6 games to winning a couple, drawing a couple and finishing second.
Cant claim to have much knowledge of the other teams, but compared to what the draw might have been, yes we have a very good chance.
Breathed a sigh of relief when Swansea got Valencia not us….
At least we’re not going to Israel, which I know a few were concerned about.
Breathed a sigh of relief when Swansea got Valencia not us….I would have sold one of my kids to get Valencia.

You still might have to pay for Russian trip :woohoo:
Seriously though, depends what people really wanted from the draw. A few jollies round Europe or games we might have a chance of winning.
After 5 games, Waregem are lying equal third with Club Brugge on 11 points, behind Anderlecht (12 points) and Standard Liege (15 points). They may be beatable, but it won’t be easy.
It’s a long way to Kazan, but Rubin have to make three long trips.
Wigan could go through, but Coyle will have to decide his priorities. I think he’ll go for promotion and field weakened teams in the away legs.
This is what life is going to be like – seven big matches in three weeks!
