Where Celtic & Rangers are with projected Europa League pots

The draw for the league phase of this season's Europa League will take place on Friday, August 29.

In that, Celtic find themselves after their failure to qualify for the Champions League proper.

They could be joined by Rangers, and look likely to do so, as they go into tonight's second leg of their play-off 3-1 down to Club Brugge. 

Should they drop into the Europa League, they will be drawn from Pot 1, as is projected below. 

However, of course, Russell Martin's men could pull off a shock and overturn the tie to reach the league phase of the Champions League.

Meanwhile, we already know that Celtic will be picked out of Pot 2.

The projected pots are based off each club's coefficient score. Rangers have a coefficient of 71.250, while Celtic are on 38.000.
