Europa League: Thursday we’ll know our opponents of the first match

Juventus will make their debut in Europe League on the round that foresees first leg on July 29th and return match on August the 5th. Thursday evening the bianconeri will know their opponent, that is the winning team of the double challenge between Shamrock Rovers (Ireland) and Bnei Yehuda Tel-Aviv (Israel) which drawn on first leg 1-1. Together with their opponent, Thursday evening Juventus will discover also if they will play the first match at home or away. The bianconeri in fact are supposed to play the first match away and the second one at home (on Modena’s pitch), but in case Irish are going to qualify and their countrymen of Sporting Fingal with them, there will be the pitch inversion and Juventus would play at home the first match. Obviously everything will be known on Thursday night and, consequently, also the tickets pre-sale for the home match won’t start before Friday at 4 a.m.
