Three teams qualified for the UCL through the playoffs: Kairat Almaty, Pafos, and Qarabağ, which are quite unfamiliar to me. But they managed to qualify, so I think they are indeed great. This means that they deserve their place in the UCL. But I hope they don't just become a source of points for the big teams that are regulars in the UCL. Here is a list of the opponents for these three teams.

Kairat Almaty	- Real Madrid - Inter Milan - Club Brugge - Arsenal - Olympiakos - Sporting CP - Pafos - Copenhagen
Pafos	- Bayern München - Chelsea - Villarreal - Juventus - Slavia Praha - Olympiakos - Monaco - Kairat Almaty
Qarabağ	- Napoli - Athletic Club Bilbao - Chelsea - Liverpool - Eintracht Frankfurt - Benfica - Ajax - Copenhagen

What do you think? I think the chances of passing the preliminary round are very slim and seem impossible.

All three teams put up a great performance. I've been following Qarabağ's performance in the last 3-4 years, and they've been on a steady rise. Bodo could also be added to this list.
Pafos was a surprise for me. Almaty knocked Celtic out of the tournament, and they came back.
Pafos' matches seem a bit easier, but you never know in football. I'm particularly expecting great success from Bodo/Glimt. They might not make the top 8, but I think they'll finish in the top 24.
