Chelsea will face Braga or Servette in the Conference League play-off round, while Rangers learn their Champions League play-off opponents should they beat Dynamo Kyiv.
Chelsea have been drawn to face either Braga or Servette in the UEFA Conference League play-off round. Braga and Servette face one another in Portugal on Thursday night in the first leg of their Europa League third qualifying round tie, with the return leg in Switzerland on Thursday August 15. The loser of that tie will drop into the Conference League to face the Blues for a place in the main competition.
A delay in materials arriving from Asia resulted in a hold-up on works to their Copland Road Stand, with games now moved to the national stadium. Meanwhile, Hearts will face the winners of FC Kryvbas Kryvyi Rih or FC Viktoria Plzeň in the Europa League play-off round. Steven Naismith's side - who kicked off the new Scottish Premiership season with a 0-0 draw against Rangers - finished third in the top-flight last season to guarantee European group-stage football.
