Europa League Round of 32 Draw Seedings

Here are the seeded (group winners and four highest ranked Champions League drop ins) and unseeded (group runners up and four lowest ranked Champions League drop ins) teams for the Round of 32 draw tomorrow. Country protection does apply in this round and teams that played in the same group cannot be drawn against each other.

SEEDED
Anderlecht
Valencia
Hapoel Tel Aviv
Sporting CP
AS Roma
Galatasaray
Red Bull Salzburg
Fenerbache
Benfica
Shakhtar Donetsk
PSV Eindhoven
Werder Bremen
Unirea Urziceni
Juventus
VfL Wolfsburg
Olympique Marseille

UNSEEDED
Ajax Amsterdam
Lille OSC
Hamburg SV
Hertha Berlin
Fulham
Panathinaikos
Villarreal
FC Twente
Everton
Club Brugge
FC Copenhagen
Athletic Bilbao
Liverpool
Rubin Kazan
Standard Liege
Atletico Madrid

The seeding doesn’t make a whole lot of difference. There are enough teams in the unseeded pot that pose a serious threat. I suppose Hertha, (sorry guys) Club Brugge, and Copenhagen will probably be on the seeded clubs’ wish list. I don’t think being drawn against Atletico is going to give too many teams the shakes right now either.

The draw for the Round of 16 also takes place tomorrow. As usual, this is an open draw, which means that teams from the same country and that have played each other previously, in the group stage, can be drawn against each other.
