The Dutch clubs have had a difficult first European round of play. Ajax, PSV, AZ and Feyenoord jointly managed to play 0.6 coefficient points together, not enough to be able to pursue competitor Belgium. Yet there is no reason to panic for the Netherlands, because its attackers Austria, Ukraine and Turkey also performed moderately to poorly.

AZ brought in 0.4 coefficient points with a resounding surprise at Napoli (0-1 win), while Feyenoord’s draw at Dinamo Zagreb (0-0) also yielded 0.2 points. On the other hand, the defeats of Ajax and PSV against respectively Liverpool (0-1) and Granada (1-2), which of course yield zero points.

The main goal of the Netherlands this season is to at least maintain a place in the top 10. This gives the champion of the 2021/22 season one hundred percent sure direct access to the group stage of the Champions League. For the time being, the Netherlands is ninth, with a reassuringly large lead over number eleven Ukraine, which also has one team less left to accumulate points.

The closest pursuer of the Netherlands is now Austria. The country has been making a huge advance in recent years, mainly due to the good performances of Red Bull Salzburg, but did not come any closer in the first European round of play. Salzburg drew against Lokomotiv Moscow (2-2), Rapid Wien gave away a lead against Arsenal (1-2) and Wolfsberger AC took a point against CSKA Moscow (1-1). With the two draws, Austria took a total of 0.4 points.

On the other hand, Belgium turned out slightly on the Netherlands. Club Brugge recorded a great victory at Zenit Saint Petersburg (1-2), AA Gent and Standard Liège lost to Slovan Liberec (1-0) and Rangers (0-2) respectively, but Royal Antwerp won meritorious at Ludogorets (1 -2). Ukraine had a poor round of play: Shakhtar Donetsk surprisingly won against Real Madrid (2-3), but Dinamo Kiev lost to Juventus (2-0) and FK Zorya Luhansk to Leicester City (3-0).

Turkey virtually loses its direct Europa League ticket
Turkey is in an incredible free fall. The Turks took very few points last season and saw three teams of the five participating clubs drop out in the preliminary rounds. In addition, Istanbul Basaksehir lost on Tuesday in the Champions League against RB Leipzig (2-0), while Sivasspor lost against Villarreal (5-3) on Thursday after a spectacle. Turkey has now been overtaken by Scotland and is thirteenth. With that, the Turks virtually lose their direct entry ticket to the Europa League, because that place only entitles the holder to two CL and two EL preliminary tickets.
