Quite of a coincidence that Brøndby will be facing Lechia Gdansk* in the 2nd qualifying round ... or as the marketing and development director of the Gdansk container port Julian Skelnik, said after Poland had entered the European Union and he was looking at the goods being shipped by the Danish company Maersk (the Worlds largest container shipping company**)

-"The port of Gdansk was founded by the Danish Vikings 1,300 years ago and is the oldest enterprise in Poland. It started with long Danish boats and now they are back."


English to Danish translation:
*Denmark = Danmark, danish = dansk

**10 Largest Container shipping companies in the World:

Did you know ? : When the US go to war abroad, all their military goods and equipment for their troops is shipped to the country in question by Maersk shipping.

 

Third qualifying round, main path :

Lechia Gdansk (Pol)/Brøndby (Den) v Braga (Por)

Tough draw for the Danish teams, with Torino, Braga and Rangers ... The Swedish teams mainly seem to be up against the Dutch so far this season, just as Haugesund from Norway, if they manage to get past their 2nd round opponents.

Third qualifying round, Champions path

(in case they lose in the Champions League 2nd qualfying round) :

Valur Reykjavík (Ice)/Ludogorets (Bul) v TNS (Wal)/FC København (Den)

Partizani (Alb)/Sheriff Tiraspol (Mol) v Maribor (Svn)/AIK Stockholm (Swe)

Sarajevo (Bos) v BATE Borisov (Blr)/Rosenborg (Nor)

Piast Gliwice (Pol)/Riga FC (Lat) v Red Star Belgrade (Srb)/HJK Helsinki (Fin)

Sutjeska (Mac)/APOEL (Cyp) v HB Tórshavn (Far)/Linfield (Nir)

8 August: first legs
15 August: second legs

Notice, that besides HB Tórshavn and Valur Reykjavík who need to win their 2nd round tie to get this far, the other Nordic teams are only going to play in this 3rd qualifying round if they get knocked out of the CL 2nd Qualifying round ... so FC København, AIK, Rosenborg and HJK Helsinki will only play in this 3rd round if they lose against TNS from Wales,Maribor from Slovenia, BATE from Belarus and Red Star from Serbia.

...or in other words, should Valur Reykjavík manage to beat Ludogorets, they will most likely face TNS from Wales and not FC København and should HB Tórshavn manage to beat Linfield, they will most likely end up facing Sutjeska from Macedonia and not APOEL from Cyprus.
