Wow, nice to have konnichiwa here too!

Basel-Salzburg would indeed be a great final, but seeing that Salzburg is already unseated in round one, they will have a hard time to reach the final.

Here are my expectations for all the games with Swiss, Austrian or Belgian teams involved:

Basel - Sarajevo

90:10
Basel has a lot of experience, can play the first game away and had no difficulty to win against another team from Bosnia-Herzegovina a year ago, so I see no reason why they should fail.

Zürich-Empoli

45:55
Difficult to say. Zürich has a strong team, but no UEFA-experience. I don't know much about Empoli, but teams from big leagues know to play such games. I didn't make it 50:50 because the first game is in Zürich.

Sion-Galatasaray

20:80
Very difficult for Sion. Zürich had no chance against Besiktas, yet Zürich managed to beat Sion 5:1 in the Super League, and the first game is in Geneva.

Austria-Valerenga

70:30
I have seen parts of the game Jablonec vs. Austria, and Austria didn't seem to strong, but they should manage to beat this team anyway.

Salzburg-AEK

50:50
Very hard to say. Salzburg messed up to qualify for the champions league even with a 1:0 lead from the first game and I see AEK and Schachtjor as equal, so it won't be easy for them. But in fact, they should be better than AEK.

Rapid-Anderlecht

35:65
Rapid didn't look too strong when they faced Tiflis, so I go for Anderlecht. They also have quite an experience with international games.

Brann Bergen-Brügge

30:70
Nice, I Basel had interesting games with both of this teams. Brügge is regularly playing international games, Bergen usually fails to qualify.

Zenit-Standard Lüttich

70:30
Russian teams have become strong in recent years, and playing there is never easy.
