2020/21 European Qualifiers – Behind closed doors



When the 2019/20 European season is concluded, the new 2020/21 will come around very quickly. UEFA confirmed on Thursday that the qualifiers for the Champions League and Europa League, which are set to be one legged matches, are to be played behind closed doors.

There will be a draw to assign home advantage for those matches but whatever way the draw goes supporters of Dundalk, Shamrock Rovers, Bohemians and Derry City will not be in attendance whether the match is home or away.
