Wolves, seventh in the Premier League last term, will face either Crusaders of Northern Ireland or B36 Torshavn of the Faroe Islands.
Wolverhampton Wanderers have been drawn against Crusaders of Northern Ireland or B36 Torshavn of the Faroe Islands in the second qualifying round of the Europa League (official Wolves website).
The Molineux side is back in European competition for the first time since 1980 thanks to an impressive showing in their first season back in the Premier League, finishing seventh in the table.
Wolves are scheduled to play at home first, with the Molineux game due to be held on 25 July before they make the trip to Northern Ireland or the Faroe Islands on 1 August.
However, the club’s official website sought to remind fans that the dates of the fixtures, as well as possible fixture reversals regarding home and away teams for each leg, are still subject to change.
Crusaders – who play at home in the first qualifying round first leg on 11 July – won a cup double by lifting the Irish Cup and County Antrim Shield last season, but only finished fourth in the NIFL Premiership League season.
Meanwhile, B36 Torshavn – who host the return leg one week later, so Wolves will only find out which team they are facing seven days before the first leg – were third in the Faroe Islands Premier League in 2018 (The Sun).
Here is how some of the Old Gold faithful reacted to Wolves’ Twitter announcement of who they will face in the Europa League:
