Hibs’ fans may be heading to Wales for the first qualifying round of the Europa League after their potential opponents were revealed.
Neil Lennon’s men could face the winner of the preliminary round tie between Tre Fiori (San Marino) and Bala Town (Wales).
Bala Town play in the Welsh Premier League and for European games they play at Rhyl’s Belle Vue stadium which can accommodate 3,000 spectators and is situated just over 260 miles from Edinburgh.
Other possible opponents are Levadia Tallinn (Estonia), IBV Vestmannaeyjar (Iceland), Kups Kuopio (Finland), Liepaja (Latvia), NSI Runavik (Faroe Isles)
Hibs will be seeded for the draw which takes place at noon (UK time) tomorrow.
The ties will be played on 12th and 19th July and the squad are already back in pre-season training to be ready.
Lennon has made his ambition to reach the group stages clear but they could face top teams such as Sevilla in the second round.
