St Patrick's Athletic and Shamrock Rovers heading to Scandinavia in Europa League First Qualifying Round

Shamrock Rovers and St Patrick's athletic will be heading to Scandinavia for their Europa League First Qualifying Round ties this summer.

Both sides expected difficult ties after going into the draw unseeded, with Scottish opposition in Kilmarnock and Aberdeen among their potential pairings.

But we now know that Rovers will be headed to Norway to face SK Brann, while Pat's will play Swedish side IFK Norrkoping.

The ties are provisionally set for the 11th and 18th July, with dates, times, and locations still to be confirmed.

Meanwhile, Cork City will face a provisional round qualifier in their First Round matchup, as one of Progres Niederkorn or Cardiff Met will be headed to Turner's Cross.

In today's earlier Champions League draw, Dundalk will play Riga FC of Latvia.
