Well, all small clubs who got a good opponent will see that differently, but the neutral viewer has to be patient as every year in the UEFA cup. Don't expect interesting games also in the next two rounds. From a sportive side the best first round duel might be CSKA Moscow vs AC Parma - but also here, at least from a western point of view Moscow isn't exactly an attractive team.

All true to a certain extent mate, however they do have somewhat of a history that would not fit the nondescript criteria.
