English Intertoto Cup entrants Blackburn Rovers have been drawn against Finland's MyPa-47 in the final qualifying round for this season's Uefa Cup.
Mark Hughes' side secured their place in the second stage of the qualifying tournament with a two-legged victory over Lithuanian side FK Vetra last month.
They will play MyPa over two legs in August for the right to be included in the main draw for the first round of this season's second tier continental competition.
Dunfermline Athletic, who finished as runners-up in last season's Scottish Cup final to Celtic, will face Swedish qualifiers FC Haecken.
The tie of the round sees German side Hamburg facing a tricky test against Honved of Hungary.
Croatian side Hajduk Split will also take on one of European football's big names in Serie A club Sampdoria, while Atletico Madrid of Spain take on Serbia's Vojvodina for a place in the first round proper.
First-leg ties will be played on August 16th, with the second legs to be played on August 30th.
