Tannochsidebear 2,306 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Leipzig Evens West Ham 2/1 Frankfurt 5/1 Rangers 8/1 1st leg prices Leipzig 2/5 Draw 7/2 Rangers 7/1 To qualify Leipzig 1/5 Rangers 10/3 Perhaps this puts the task ahead into some perspective, it will be a major achievement to qualify for the final, probably the same as beating Dortmund but with a lot more pressure on us. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill 13,717 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 I wonder what the odds were when we were drawn against Fiorentina in 2008 or against Bayern Munich in 1972 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,409 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 One thing that has been proven is that when we play to our best we are a match for anyone, when you reach the semis in any tournament you have a chance. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 They look very quick and is the game opens up we may be in trouble. They may struggle if we can keep it more compact. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 13,587 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 I worry about us against teams good at set-pieces (I think West Ham probably fall into that category). The East Germans have some cracking young players but it's a semi-final and tension is inevitable. That might favour us. I have a general dislike for Eintracht Frankfurt - they hammered us in the 60s and my only HSV game was a 1-0 defeat to them. I also encountered many of their fans on the way to our (away) match against Rapid Vienna and found them to be disagreeable, in an efficient sort of way. I'm not sure what to expect but it's just great to be where we are. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
