Burnley have been handed a Battle of Britain tie against Aberdeen on their return to the European stage after a 51-year absence.
The Clarets, who finished seventh in last season’s Premier League, were paired with the Ladbrokes Scottish Premiership runners-up in Wednesday’s draw for the Europa League second qualifying round in Nyon.
Sean Dyche’s men will travel to Pittodrie on Thursday, July 26, with the Dons, who famously won the European Cup Winners’ Cup under Sir Alex Ferguson in 1983, heading south of the border a week later.
Should be interesting!
