Cork City FC has been advised by UEFA that the draws for Qualifying Rounds 1 and 2 will now take place over two days, Tuesday 18th and Wednesday 19th June.
Details are as follows:
Tuesday 18th June 2019
2.30PM Irish Time: 1st Qualifying Round Main Path
Wednesday 19th June 2019
1PM Irish Time: UEL 2nd Qualifying Round Main Path
Please note, Cork City’s first round fixture date, time & venue will be confirmed on Wednesday, 19th June as a result of any potential scheduling changes or fixture reversals due to ‘same city’ clashes. We strongly advise supporters do not book or make any travel arrangements until the fixture arrangement (home/away) is confirmed by Cork City FC on our website and social media channels.
We will have live coverage of the draw across our social media channels. UEFA.com will show a live video stream.
Cork City are seeded in the first round draw. Possible opponents are made-up of teams who qualify via their league position or national cup victory. A preliminary round (June 27 & July 4th) will take place prior to the First Qualifying Round, where seven teams will join 87 teams already in the First Qualifying Round to make up the 47 ties.
