    It really depends on the games, if the games were physical then it might have a toll on the players; but the successful clubs usually play an adjusted lineup the week-end before in anticipation of their UEFA game and they have good reserve especially on the midfield. And early in the season this usually isn't a big issue.

    When you pick your spots you can find some nice ones. Utrecht played Thursday night in a 0-0 draw with Liverpool that they should have won. One of the biggest games in Utrecht's history. They play an early game this Sunday at Ajax... Ajax played a CL match on Tuesday (1-1 AC Milan), and should be far more rested. (Utrecht has been strong at home and poor on the road).

    I would look for teams coming off a hard fought match on Thursday, on little rest.

    Take Sevilla to at least draw against Atletico Madrid this weekend. Manager change. Europa League win. First home match under the new manager, I'm expecting a result.

    I think Bursaspor ll also struggle, they have not got used to it yet, and if u see second half of the game they tried so hard for a draw, and spent very much effort.
