Hearts discover 10 potential opponents ahead of Europa Conference League draw

Hearts have discovered their ten potential opponents for the Europa Conference League ahead of today’s third qualifying round draw.

The separate groupings were made on Monday morning with Frankie McAvoy’s men set to square off against some strong competition for a place in the play-off round.

Nineteen-time Turkish champions Fenerbahce are a possibility, along with Norwegian heavyweights Rosenborg, Dutch side FC Twente and Belgium’s last 16 Champions League representatives from the 2022/23 campaign, Club Brugge.

The unseeded Tynecastle side will face the winner of one of these ties:
