This time, due to the reform of UEFA, to become one of the 32 participants of the group stage, the best Polish team of the past season will face four rivals.

A year ago, the Legionnaires dropped out of the third qualifying round with Kazakh FK Astana and qualified for the Champions League after winning the final qualifying round of the overall standings against Irish Dundalk FC (2-0, home 1: 1). Earlier, they eliminated the Bosnian Zrinjski Mostar team (1: 1, 2: 0), and the next – Slovak AS Trencin (1: 0, 0: 0). In the main part of the competition, they could check with Real Madrid (3: 3 in Warsaw with empty stands), Borussia Dortmund or Sporting Lisbon, at the price of which they reached the 1/16 final of the European League in third place. was Lech Poznan, who lost in the third (penultimate) round eliminating FC Basel 1: 3 at home and 0: 1 in Switzerland. "Kolejorz" tried to access the LM group stage for the fourth time and he was unsuccessful.

In the early 1990s, Lech was the first Polish team to participate twice in the LM qualifications, but he dropped out at every turn. , losing to IFK Goeteborg and Spartak Moscow. Legia, who was beaten twice by Hajduk Split, has failed to progress in the next edition.

During the 1995/96 season, the Warsaw team was among the 16 best clubs in Europe. In qualifying, the team of coach Paweł Janas beat IFK Goeteborg – 1: 0 at home and 2: 1 in Sweden. The Polish champion then reached the quarterfinals, where he was eliminated by the Panathinaikos of Athens.

In the next edition, Poland also had its representative in the group stage of LM. That was Widzew Lodz, who in the eliminations handled Broendby Copenhagen (2: 1, 2: 3). They scored a goal in the 90th minute of the rematch in Denmark. Their adventure with LM is over on the group stage after taking third place. Later – until 2016 – none of the Polish clubs have qualified for the Champions League.

In 1997, UEFA decided to increase the number of participants of the main round from 16 to 24, but Widzew was eliminated by the Italian. Parma

During the 1998/99 season, LM won second place in the strongest leagues, and the following teams took third and fourth places, making Polish teams even more difficult. In addition, they were not lucky in attracting rivals. The last obstacles in the promotion at LM were, among others, Manchester United, Real Madrid or Barcelona three times

In the 2005/06 season, Wisła Krakow's footballers did not have enough time to succeed . After the goal of Radosław Sobolewski in the 87th minute of the return leg in Athens against Panathinaikos, they lost 1: 2 and this result ensured their promotion, as the first match they won was 3: 1. , they lost the third goal, and in the extension of the fourth, they gave up.

Twelve years ago, on the last lap, Zagłębie Lubin was unable to meet Shakhtar Donetsk 12 years ago. for promotion to LM Wisła fought again without success. After a draw at Sosnowiec in the second qualifying round (the Krakow stadium was modernized) with Levadia Tallinn 1: 1, Estonia lost by 0: 1 and gave up. On the next lap, Lech's adventure ended in the third qualifying round and Sparta Prague proved too strong.

After the reform of the European Cup, led by UEFA President Michel Platini, the qualifying rounds take place in two ways. To facilitate access to the elite teams of Central and Eastern Europe, two qualifying tracks have been separated, the league and league, in which face the teams of the low places in the continatals of the continent. As a result, rivals from England, Spain, Germany or Italy are no longer en route to the Polish Champion

In 2011, it seemed like Wisla Krakow in benefit. After eliminating Skonto Ryga and Liteks Łowecz, APOEL Nicosia has qualified for the decisive qualifying round. In her own stadium, she won 1: 0, but in revenge, she succumbed to 1: 3.

Six years ago, ąląsk Wrocław tried to get to the football paradise. In the second qualifying round, he eliminated Montenegrin Buducnost Podgorica, but in the following he had nothing to say in the fight against Helsingborgs IF Sweden. The results 0: 3 and 1: 3 speak for themselves

The 22nd approach of the Polish club against LM has also not been successful, although the Legia in qualifying .. did not fail. First, he eliminated the Welsh New Saints FC (3: 1, 1: 0), then the Norwegian Molde FK (1: 1, 0: 0), but the Steaua Bucharest was best in the decisive round. In the capital of Romania there was a draw 1: 1, but 2: 2 in Warsaw gave rise to rivals

The fans and footballers of the capital team will remember the circumstances in which Legia lost her promotion chance to the Bureau in 2014. On the field, she first eliminated the Irish Athletic St. Patrick's (1: 1 and 5: 0), then the Celtic Glasgow (4: 1 and 2: 0). The victory in Scotland, however, had a bitter taste, as Bartosz Bereszyński, unauthorized, but only a few minutes, punished the Polish champion with a 0: 3 fighter, who decided to play "The Bhoys"
