More clarity is emerging regarding the potential opponents for Azerbaijan's sole representative in the UEFA Europa League first qualifying round.
Three more clubs — Partizan (Serbia), Levski (Bulgaria), and Priština (Kosovo) — have secured their spots in the tournament, Idman.biz reports.
Among them, Partizan will be in the seeded pot, while Levski and Priština are unseeded, which means that Partizan once again becomes a potential opponent for the Azerbaijani club.
Azerbaijan will be represented by either Zira or Sabah, depending on domestic competition outcomes.
