Shamrock Rovers could meet Dinamo Zagreb in Champions League qualifiers

The Hoops are away to Ludogorets in the second qualifying round tomorrow evening.

SHAMROCK ROVERS HAVE discovered their potential opponents for the third qualifying round of the Champions League. 

The Hoops progressed past Hibernians of Malta in their opening tie to earn a meeting with Bulgarian side Ludogorets.

If Stephen Bradley’s men come through a tough second qualifying round, they will then take on the winner of Dinamo Zagreb versus Macedonian outfit Shkupi. 

The losers of both ties will also face off in the Europa League third qualifying round. 

Rovers are away to Ludogorets in the first leg tomorrow evening (6.45pm, live on RTÉ 2). 

Elsewhere in the Europa Conference League, Sligo Rovers will face either Sparta Praha of Czech Republic or Viking of Norway in the third qualifying round if they can overcome Scottish side Motherwell in their next round, the first leg of which takes place this Thursday. 

St Patrick’s Athletic, who qualified for the second qualifying round with a bye from the first round, will face either CSKA Sofia of Bulgaria or FK Makedonija Gjorče Petrov of North Macedonia if they can overcome the significant challenge of Slovenian side Mura in their tie.
