City handed Faroes trip
Manchester City have been handed a trip to the Faroe Islands in the first qualifying round of the Uefa Cup.
Mark Hughes's team will face Streymur and the minnows are delighted to face a Premier League team.
Streymur director Roland Hojsted said: "Manchester City were our number one choice, there is no doubt about that.
"We were all excited about the draw beforehand and that has only increased now we know Manchester City will be our opponents."
The second leg will be played at Barnsley's Oakwell ground because the City of Manchester Stadium will be staging a Bon Jovi concert.
Rangers could face the Lithuanian team Kaunas, who are sponsored by a bank run by Hearts owner Vladimir Romanov.
Rangers have been drawn against Kaunas or the Andorran side Santa Coloma in the second qualifying round.
