Strap yourselves in! The draw is about to begin...

Larne have made history by becoming the first Irish League club ever to make the group or league stages of a European club competition as an Andy Ryan hat-trick saw them defeat Lincoln Red Imps 4-3 on aggregate in the Uefa Conference League play-off.

The New Saints created Welsh football history as they secured their place in the Europa Conference League group stages.

Saints were held to a goalless draw at Park Hall by FK Panevezys of Lithuania in the second leg of the play-offs to complete a 3-0 aggregate win.

The draw ceremony is well under way. Christian Karembeu, who won the Champions League with Real Madrid and the World Cup with France in 1998, is on stage.

Pot One: Chelsea, Copenhagen, Gent, Fiorentina, LASK, Real Betis.

Pot Two: Istanbul Basaksehir, Molde, Legia Warsaw, Heidenheim, Djurgarden, APOEL Nicosia.

Pot Three: Rapid Vienna, Omonia Nicosia, HJK Helsinki, Vitoria, Astana, Olimpija Ljubljana.

Pot Four: Cercle Brugge, Shamrock Rovers, The New Saints, Lugano, Mlada Boleslav, Hearts.

Pot Five: Petrocub, St Gallen, Panathinaikos, TSC Backa Topola, Borac Banja Luka, Jagiellonia.

Pot Six: Celje, Larne, Dinamo Minsk, Pafos, Vikingur Reykjavik, Noah.

This one is slightly different to the Champions League and Europa League draws. Each side will face six different teams (three home games, three away) as opposed to eight in the other two competitions.

The top eight sides in the league will qualify automatically for the knockout stages, while the teams finishing in ninth to 24th place will compete in a two-legged play-off to secure a place in the last 16 of the competition.

Here we go!

The Conference League draw - involving Chelsea, Hearts, Welsh side The New Saints, Shamrock Rovers and Northern Irish team Larne - is about to get under way.

Imagine the scenes if TNS or Larne get Chelsea.

Who will The New Saints and Larne face in the Europa Conference League? We'll be back at 13.30 BST to find out. Chelsea, Hearts and Shamrock Rovers are also involved.
