Crystal Palace will discover who they will face in the knockout phase of the Conference League at the draw on Friday, 16 November at 12:00 GMT.
After missing out on qualifying directly for the round of 16 by finishing 10th in the league phase, the Eagles will be seeded for the play-off round.
It means Palace will be guaranteed to play the second-leg at their Selhurst Park home.
Oliver Glasner’s side already know they will face either Sigma Olomouc from Czech Republic or Zrinjski Mostar from Bosnia-Herzegovina in the play-offs.
If Palace do advance, they are guaranteed to be drawn against Germany’s Mainz or Cyprus’ AEK Larnaca in the round of 16 in March.

Clubs are paired based on their positions at the end of the league phase to form four seeded pairs.
That means teams who finished ninth and 10th, 11th and 12th, 13th and 14th, as well as 15th and 16th are all paired together and seeded.
The clubs that finished in the bottom end of the league phase table, 17th to 24th, form the other four unseeded pairs.
The clubs in each seeded pair are drawn into the same knockout phase bracket, where they will play against the clubs in each unseeded pair.
So, ninth seeds Lausanne-Sport and 10th seeds Crystal Palace are drawn against unseeded 23rd and 24th-placed teams Zrinjski Mostar and Sigma Olomouc.
As Mainz finished seventh and AEK Larnaca finished eighth in the league phase, they have been paired together in the same bracket for the round of 16, where they will face either Crystal Palace, Zrinjski Mostar, Sigma Olomouc or Lausanne-Sport.
Sides can face another team from the same national association in the knockout phase play-offs – although there are no other English clubs in the competition.
Clubs can also face opponents they met during the league phase.
