The composition of the pots for the play-off draw for the Champions League qualifying round. Possible rivals of Dynamo

Next Tuesday, August 2, the draw for the play-off round of the Champions League qualification will take place, which, among other things, will determine the possible opponents of Dynamo Kyiv at this stage of the tournament - in case the White-Blues manage to pass the 3rd qualifying round, where, we recall, they will fight with the Austrian Sturm.

Recall that Dynamo participates in the qualification of the current Champions League along the "path of" non-champions ". In this segment of the tournament, the playoff round will feature four clubs: Winners of the third qualifying round in the Non-Champion Path.

Prior to the draw, all potential play-off round participants will be split into two pots - seeded and unseeded - according to their UEFA Club Coefficient. Since at the time of the draw all these teams will be represented in pairs of the 3rd qualification, when forming the baskets, the maximum value of the coefficients of the opponents in the pair will be taken. As a result of this principle, the Dynamo-Sturm pair ended up in the unseeded group.
