The dates for Celtic's Champions League qualifiers have been pushed back as UEFA announced their plans for next season's tournament.
The governing body met on Wednesday to discuss the resumption of European football and next season's schedule.
As expected, the qualifying campaign will start later than usual but, there is a unique twist to them. The qualifiers will all be one-legged ties except from the final play-offs.
The first qualifying round will take place on August 18/19 with the draw deciding which team gets home advantage.
The next round will go ahead on August 25/26 with the third qualifying round scheduled for September 16/17.
The playoff will return to the usual two-legged affair on September 22/23 and 29/30 as teams look to get over the final hurdle.
The delayed start to qualifying means the Champions League group stage will also be pushed back.
The six match-days are scheduled for October 20/21 and 27/28, November 3/4 and 24/25, and December 1/2 and 8/9.
Celtic usually start their qualifying campaign in July, but next season it will commence three weeks after the Premiership gets underway.
