Rovers, Derry and Bohs learn potential Europa League opponents ahead of Monday's draw

Shamrock Rovers, Bohemians and Derry City will find out their respective opponents in the Europa League first qualifying round on Monday morning (11am Irish time).

Shamrock Rovers will be seeded for the draw while both Derry and Bohs have been placed in the unseeded half.

As is common practice, the teams have been drawn into loosely regionalised pots, which were confirmed to the clubs on Sunday evening.

Rovers have a two-in-three chance of facing Finnish opposition after they were placed alongside unseeded sides Honka Espoo and Ilves Tampere, as well as Slovakian outfit Dunajska Streda.

A first Europa League outing in six years for Bohemians will see them face either Bodo/Glimt of Norway, Nomme Kalju of Estonia or Fehervar of Hungary.

Derry City, meanwhile, will come up against one of two Lithuanian teams, Zalgiris and Riteriai, or another Hungarian team in Budapest Honved.



The draw, which features 94 teams in all, will be broadcast live from Nyon on UEFA’s official website from 11am Irish time.
