Ideally, we need to finish 3rd. The away backing would be guaranteed in the first leg (if away) therefore setting us up for a 2nd leg home game.

Last year we had a time scale because of champs league final??


Yeah that's it, good memory.

Although if a week was ok last year I'm not sure why it couldn't have been this.

If it was Tue/Wed wouldn't it be the same i.e. asking two of the teams to have only a two day break before the first leg.


Technically, yes. But at the same time, no. Finish at Saturday at 5pm to recover for 7.45 pm Tuesday is 75 hours recovery. Thursday 9.30pm to Sunday 4.30pm is 67 hours. Those 8 hours could make a big difference. It's the same for both teams of course but I imagine the players would rather play Saturday, Tuesday, Sunday than Saturday, Thursday, Sunday. I know I would.

The more I think about it: the clubs have to sell tickets so it gives them extra time and for supporters to make arrangements.
