Ok, getting closer to the full list of 32 teams who will play CL this year. Just like last year 22 teams qualify directly while the other 10 teams come through two separate qualification processes.
The 22 teams who are qualified are: Inter (Titleholders), Barcelona, Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Milan, Lyon, Real Madrid, Roma, Shakthar Donetsk, Benfica, Valencia, Marseille, Panathinaikos, Rangers, Schalke 04, Spartak Moscow, Twente, Rubin Kazan, CFR 1907 Cluj and Bursaspor.
The other 10 teams will be given in the next, final, qualification round. As said, they will be separated in two groups of 10 teams and the winners will proceed to CL groups.
In the first (Non-champions) qualifications the final 10 teams left are:
1. Sevilla 108.951 pts
2. Werder Bremen 94.841
3. Zenit St. Petersburg 61.258
4. Tottenham Hotspur 56.371
5. Ajax 55.309
----------------------------------
6. Dynamo Kyiv 42.910
7. Braga 39.659
8. Sampdoria 30.867
9. Auxerre 19.748
10. Young Boys (SUI) 7.675
5 of them will go to CL.
In the second (Champions) qualifications the final 10 teams left are:
1. Basel 48.675
2. Anderlecht 42.580
3. FC København 34.470
4. Hapoel Tel-Aviv 27.775
5. Sparta Praha 27.395
------------------------------
6. Rosenborg 23.980
7. Salzburg 19.915
8. Partizan 13.800
9. Žilina (SVK) 10.666
10. Sheriff (MDA) 5.458
5 of them will qualify.
I am not sure yet, but I think that there will be seeded teams in the qualification draw so I believe Sampdoria will get one of Sevilla, Zenit, Werder, Tottenham and Ajax.
