Brighton & Hove Albion will discover their opponents for the UEFA Conference League play-off round when the draw takes place in Nyon, Switzerland, at 1:00pm BST on Monday, August 3.
After finishing eighth in the Premier League last season, the Seagulls secured a place in Europe’s third-tier club competition and will begin their campaign at the play-off stage. The two-legged ties are scheduled for August 20 and August 27, with the winners advancing to the UEFA Conference League league phase.

– CFR Cluj (Romania) or Tromsø (Norway)
– Hibernian (Scotland) or KF Shkëndija (North Macedonia)
– Ferencváros (Hungary) or Górnik Zabrze (Poland)

The draw will be broadcast live on TNT Sports, while Brighton will also confirm their play-off opponents across the club’s official channels as soon as the draw is completed.
