Next Round Draw Odds

Someone with a calculator worked it all out. So it looks like we're getting Bayern again huh? Well if we just keep it tight at home this time and thrash them at their place as usual then we should be fine!

HK - No, because Barca have the possibility of facing any of 6 teams therefore if you had a 20% chance of facing every team that'd add up to more than 100%.

if you have possibility of 5 teams then probability of getting any is 1/5=20%, if you have options of 6 teams probability is 1/6 = 16.7%

You're a moron.

How can you have a 20% chance of drawing a side if they have a 14.2% chance of drawing you?

Evidently not basic enough for you. Do you not understand the concept that there can't be an equal chance of drawing each team because of the rule that you can't play teams from your own league? The only way the odds could be equal would be if there were exactly the same number of teams from each country occupying first and second in each group.

It's just because both Bayern and ourselves can play each other, and only have a total choice of 5 teams to play each. Neither can play the team that also qualified from their group, or the two teams from their country in the other half of the draw, whereas the other clubs (barring the other English and German ones) have at least 6 teams they could be drawn against.
