I dunno which way to look at it, there are good n bad points.
They have an advantage of being able to go through via a score draw, we have an advantage of being at home. Best way to look at it is, we did'nt lose, so ANY kinda win will do us, non of this shitty " gotta win be x amount " At the start of the season, if somebody told you, to get into the champions league final, you need to win 1 game by any score at home.....would you of taken it?...Yes. We dont beat em, we dont deserve it, simple as. |

I agree about the advantage in extra time for the visitors, but again this rarely plays out that way. |

they certainly have the skill in their team to give us a run for our money.....its not beyond them to score and if we dont score more then we're out if we play our own game we should be ok but knowing how we give European opponents far too much respect in the past.....its a worry...... |

It may just be my memory, but we always seem to concede stupid goals, so when we are in a position where 1 goal will £#%&! us up so badly it worries me immensely. Also, at this stage we always seem to suffer when we play away first. |

If the team that's won 16 of 18 league games and all our European home games this season turns up and plays like they can we'll be fine. What worries me is that they play like they did against, say, Citeh, or come out shit scared of conceding an away goal like we've done in the past and it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. An away goal and a win/draw would have been ideal but we didn't get it, let's deal with the situation as it is ie not perfect but it could have been worse

Obviously you're right that teams that score away goals often win the ties, but just as obviously it doesn't always work out that way. Didn't help Roma much last year did it. |

For a positive spin, if we'd got a score draw, we know 0-0 gets us through. We now need to score to go through. Which game plan do you think we have more success with? Which is our usual game plan? I'm more comfortable needing to win 1-0 than knowing the players know they don't need to score.
