The Tigers will make their European bow this season and must battle through two rounds of qualifying to reach the group stage.

City’s first task will be a two legged affair against either Trencin or FK Vojodina. The two clubs met last night in the first leg of the second qualifying round and Trencin ran out 4-0 winners.

The second leg will take place in Serbia next Thursday but it would be a major surprise if the hosts are able to over-turn the deficit.

That would mean Hull travelling to Slovakia on July 31 for the first leg with the return scheduled for the KC Stadium a week later.

Trencin, who play in a 4,500 capacity stadium, finished second in last season’s top flight of the Slovakian League.
