Everton to face either MFK Ruzomberok or SK Brann in third round of Europa League qualifying

Everton will face either MFK Ruzomberok of Slovakia or Norway's SK Brann in the third round of qualifying for the Europa League.

Ronald Koeman's side were one of 25 sides that entered the draw at the third-round stage, alongside the likes of AC Milan, PSV Eindhoven and Fenerbache. Should they progress from the two-legged tie they will reach the play-off round - the final hurdle before the competition proper.

The first leg of the third round qualifier will be played at Goodison Park on Thursday July 27 with the return scheduled for August 3. Brann head into the second leg of their tie with Ruzomberok having won the first leg in Slovakia 1-0.
