The group stage of the Europa League has been reduced to eight groups. Instead of a round of 32, the eight second-placed teams will meet one of the eight sides finishing third in their group in a two-legged play-off round in February.
The eight winners of the group will join the eight teams in the last 16.
The teams who finish third in their groups will get to play in the last 16 of the European competition for the first time, while the teams who finish second in their groups will not.
We now know who we will face in the play-off draw.
You don't have to worry about this as you are progressing directly to the last 16.

It would be difficult. He can't be expected to turn the company around in 10 minutes. I don't think the conditions are right for him to make the level of success he wants to make and to impose himself on the job at Paris Saint-Germain. There is an understanding of that now. I would be staggered if they won the league.
