European Cups Draws

The draws for the Champions League and UEFA Cup qualifying rounds
were made in Switzerland on Friday. Champions Dinamo Tbilisi will
face the Estonian side Levadia Tallinn. The first leg will take place
in Estonia on either the 12/13th July with the return in Tbilisi a
week later. If Dinamo sucessfully defeats Levadia they will meet
Danish Champions Brondby in the 2nd qualifying round.
“All of the possible opponents for FC Dinamo in the first qualifying
round of the UCL were practically of the same strength. Thus we knew
the level of the club we would face in the preliminary round. Title
holders of Estonian championship can not be weak. Chances for
elimination from the tournament are equal for both teams. However we
promise to take any possible efforts to overcome Baltic barrier. Time
before the first leg match is enough for thorough preparation.” –
commented Dinamo head coach Kakhaber Tskhadadze.

In the UEFA Cup Torpedo Kutaisi were paired with Belarussian side
BATE Borisov. Dinamo Tbilisi faced BATE last season in the UEFA Cup
and defeated them 4-2 over two legs. Torpedo will play at home in the
first leg on 14th July with the return two weeks later in Belarus.
Lokomotivi Tbilisi were paired with Armenian side Banants Yerevan.
Lokomotivi will be in Armenia for the first leg.
