LAST UPDATE | 5 Aug

STEPHEN BRADLEY AND SHAMROCK Rovers have had a carrot dangled in front of them with UEFA making a draw in the Europa League.

Rovers have Slovenia’s Celje in the third qualifying round with the first leg this Thursday, and the return leg seven days later, 15 August.

Should they negotiate a way through, no less a glamorous name than Malmo FF of Sweden could be the future opposition, or alternatively PAOK FC of Greece.

The tie between those two is fixed for tomorrow (Tuesday), with the first leg in Sweden. The return leg will be a week later.

For St Patrick’s Athletic in the Europa Conference League, they face a possible play-off tie with FC Iberia 1999 Tbilisi or İstanbul Başakşehir for a place in the group stages.

Stephen Kenny’s side take on Sabah FK in third third round, the first-leg tie at Tallaght Stadium this Thursday before the return in Azerbaijan next week.
