Burnley could face Arda, Adebayor and Clichy in Europa League qualifiers

Burnley's hopes of reaching the Europa League group stage for the first time received a blow as Monday's draw for the third qualifying round pit them against Istanbul Basaksehir, if they can get past Aberdeen.

Sean Dyche's men were the surprise package of the Premier League last term as they managed to finish seventh, securing a return to European football after a 51-year absence.

They have to defeat Aberdeen in the second qualifying round, but should they succeed, Burnley will face the side that finished third, just three points behind champions Galatasaray, in the Turkish Super Lig in 2017-18.
