17 June 2026

Hearts will face Sturm Graz in Champions League qualifying, while Motherwell drew Havnar Boltfelag and Hibernian await Vllaznia or Malisheva in the Conference League. The ties give three Scottish clubs clear European routes for July.

Hearts’ draw arrives during managerial uncertainty, with Derek McInnes expected to leave for Rangers. Motherwell are also seeking a new manager, while Hibs face a lower-ranked opponent but begin away from home in either Albania or Kosovo.
