Dundalk to face either Molde or KuPS if they win first-round Champions League tie

Should Dundalk see off Slovenian champions NK Celje in their first-round Champions League qualifier, they will host either Molde or KuPS in the second round.

The Lilywhites learned of their first-round opposition yesterday, and they will be away from home against NK Celje.

That game will take place on either the 18th or 19th of August and it will be likely to take place in Hungary.

Vinny Perth’s side – should they see off their Slovenian opponents – will host either Molde (Norway) or KuPS (Finland).

That game is due to take place on either the 25th or 26th of August.
