Europa League: Playoff draw live today
In the Europa League, the two clubs will not face each other for the time being - that much is certain before the draw.
The same applies here as in the Champions League: teams from the same national association may only meet in the quarter-finals at the earliest.
In the playoffs, those who have been relegated to the Champions League, i.e. the third-placed teams from the group stage, fight against the runners-up in the Europa League preliminary round for a place in the round of 16.
The winner then plays a Europa League group winner in the round of 16.
SC Freiburg is one of these eight teams.
The draw for the Europa League playoffs will take place on Monday.
