Strasbourg learn potential Europa Conference League opponents | OneFootball

RC Strasbourg Alsace will compete in the UEFA Europa Conference League this season, following a seventh-place finish in Ligue 1 last time around.

Les Alsaciens dropped into the Europa Conference League after a last-gasp loss to Le Havre AC on the final day of the season. In order to qualify for the League Phase, Strasbourg must progress through a qualifier.

The Ligue 1 side learned their two potential opponents on Monday. They will face either Bröndby or Vikingur Reykjavik. The two Nordic sides will face each other in a two-legged tie, the winner of which will be known on 14th August.

The first leg of Strasbourg’s play-off will take place at home, at the Meinau, on 21st August, with the return leg one week later on 28th August. Before that, Liam Rosenior’s side will get their Ligue 1 campaign up and running with a derby against FC Metz on Sunday 17th.
