Leeds face German test

Veteran midfielder Thomas Hassler plays for 1860

Leeds United will face tough German outfit TSV 1860 Munich in the third qualifying round of the Champions League.

1860 finished fourth in the Bundesliga last season.

The first leg of the tie will be played at Elland Road on either 8 or 9 August, with the return leg in Munich on either 22 or 23 August.

The German side are regarded as the little neighbour to local rivals Bayern Munich.

Their only player of note is veteran midfielder Thomas Hassler, who was part of Germany's Euro 2000 squad, with almost 100 caps to his name.

Scottish champions Rangers have been paired against Herfolge of Denmark.

Turnover

But Rangers still have to beat Lithuanian opponents Kaunas in the second round.

Kaunas will be no turnover. They overturned a 0-3 first leg deficit to beat Bosnians Brotnjo Citluk 4-3 on aggregate in the first round.

But if Rangers win, they will be away in the first leg of the third qualifying round.

Shelbourne will face the might of Croatia's Hajduk Spilt or Hungary's Dunaferr, if the Irish champions get past Rosenborg of Norway.
