Tomorrow there is the draw for champions: find out about Benfica’s potential opponents

A special highlight is the first competition, in the draw where Benfica will find out who will be lucky in the same qualifying round, which will be played on 3/4 and 10 August.

The Eagles come as a seed, allowing them to escape from Shakhtar Donetsk, Monaco and another team, which will leave the confrontation between Celtic and Midtjylland. This means that the opponents in this third qualifying round can be jinkAnd the Spartak Moscow (led by Roy Vitoria) and the match winning teams Eindhoven – Galatasaray e Rapid Vienna Sparta Prague. The draw for the third qualifying round will take place at 11 am in Lisbon and the teams that will make it to the play-off, whose matches will be decided on August 2, will be decided in a new draw to be held in Nyon.

Two hours later, at 1 p.m., it will be Paços de Ferreira’s turn to also know their opponent in the third round of the Conference Tournament qualifiers, just like Santa Clara, but in the case of the Azores, they still have to overcome a tie with the Macedonian Chocobi.
