Real Betis Balompié (ESP)
FC Schalke 04 (GER)
FC PAOK Thessaloniki (GRE)
SK Sturm Graz (AUT)
Grasshopper-Club (SUI)
Hapoel Tel-Aviv FC (ISR)

FK Viktoria Zizkov (CZE)
PFC Levski Sofia (BUL)
Djurgårdens IF (SWE)

My dream tie is Djurgården, who i supported through all my years of living in Sweden. They are a really good young side who currently top the swedish league (by 1 point)

I have a feeling that it'll be grasshoppers again.... maybe Hapoel Tel-Aviv?

el tel says that he doesn't wanna play in sofia, hapoel say that they don't want to play in sofia because they had like 100 fans for their last game.

Hapoel is considering Switzerland, Italy, and Cyprus. Although they did say it was unlikely for cyprus because there are 2 teams playing there.

i don't really care where we play the second leg, lets try and put it out of reach in the first leg this time.

Hapoel have chosen the 47,000-capacity Artemio Franchi stadium in Florence, Italy for their game vs Leeds.

I hope their fans don't like to travel.

Alright I am new to this and am curious why Hapoel is not playing in Israel? Is it because of the Palestine conflict?

Do all Israeli teams have to play outside of Israel or just for international competition?
