Dundalk, currently seventh in the League of Ireland's Premier Division, reached the group stages of last season's Europa League where they faced Arsenal. "We know they're a good side and obviously played against Arsenal last year in the Europa League group stages and you don't get to that level if you're not a good team. The winners of the two-legged tie will face Estonia's Levadia Tallinn or St Joseph's of Gibraltar in the second qualifying round. Newtown's last foray into Europe was in 2015 when they beat Maltese side Valletta in the Europa League first qualifying round before bowing out to FC Copenhagen in the following round.
