I thik that both Arsenal and Celtic can't to be present in 3rd qualifying round. If Arsenal win on 17th may, Arsenal will be in group stage. If Arsenal lose on 17th may, Celtic will be in group stage.
WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?

I agree. See Seeding in the Champions League 2006/2007, where just above the seeding list for QR3 is written:
"The 3rd Qualifying Round currently lists 33 teams. If Barcelona wins the Champions League, then the Scottish champions Celtic will qualify directly for the group stage. Otherwise, Arsenal takes the title-holder spot."

Thеn if team has coefficient more than 33.777 it must be seeded, or no?

No, at this moment there are only 15 teams with a coefficient lower then 33.777.

Considering the current situation, Levski (35,016) will surely be seeded in the third qualifiyng round of the Champions League. No matter if Arsenal or Celtic participates in the third qualifiyng round.

By now Levski is 13-th in the rank. There are only 3 teams in Europe that can overtake the bulgarians in the seedings - Roma, Sevilla and Steaua. But even if that happens, Levski will take the 16-th position.

It's not likely to happen, but if

Internazionale
Liverpool
Valencia
Ajax
Celtic
Benfica
CSKA Moscow
Panathinaikos
Dinamo Kiev
Werder Bremen
AS Roma
Sevilla
Lille
Basel
Steaua
Sparta Prague

qualify then Levski will be unseeded.

Yes, ur right! I forgot Sparta Praha. So we must wait another week.

But its really an utopic situation - none of Slavia Praha, Teplice and M. Boleslav shouldn't take a win in the remaining two games. And Roma must win over Milan in the last round... I think is simply impossible.

I hope that we must wait to Wensday, 17.00 CET. For Levski - unseeded, I thik that is incredibly too, but nevertheless ...
