FYI:

 

"AEK Athens secured the final Champions League qualifying spot in sensational fashion, scoring twice in added time to turn the tie against Dinamo Zagreb on its head, winning 4-3 on aggregate."

I hope it doesnt come to this, but that result could be of importance to us if, as looks quite likely, we're going to drop to the EL. In that case we could be in Pot 1 of the draw, only if Zagreb and Ajax don't also make the EL group draw, as both have a higher coefficient than us. We should hope now that Sparta Prague beat Zagreb in the EL play-offs (Zagreb don't drop into the EL groups, as we would if we lose to PSV, they have to play in an EL play-off). Ajax are in the play-off of the EL, against Ludogorets, so chances are they will win that.

do we just need 1 not to qualify?

Yes. If both Ajax and Zagreb are both in EL draw, assuming we are too, we will drop to Pot 2
