Santos on Portugal's Europa League draw: We shouldn't predict who is favourite

Live Bar December 17, 2017 Today, the results of the Europa League group stage draw were released, Portugal was divided into A2 group along with Spain, Switzerland and the Czech Republic, and then Portugal coach Fernando Santos was interviewed by the media.

Santos said: "In the League of Nations, no one wants to meet anyone. We are now at the top of the list in Europe and there are some teams that would normally be in A but they have relegated to B, so we shouldn't be predicting who is favourite. ”

"A lot of things will change before the game officially starts. It's a very stable group, Spain, Switzerland and the Czech Republic are all strong and we have to be prepared for that. ”

The Europa League group stage will take place in June and September next year, and Santos said: "It's always difficult to play in June and when we play at the European Championships this summer, many of our players are far from what they want. The players are tired at the moment, but in September the situation is just the opposite, which depends a lot on the state of each player, which is also a factor to consider. ”
