Queen of the South have been drawn against Danish outfit Nordsjaelland in their UEFA Cup second-round qualifier.

The Irn-Bru First Division side made this stage by virtue of their run to the Scottish Cup final last season, where they lost to Rangers.

And manager Gordon Chisholm admitted scant knowledge of his opponents, who will travel to Scotland for the first leg, but relished the prospect of pitting his wits against European opposition.

"I don't know much about them but I will try to get over there before the first leg to see them," he said.

"The standard of football over there is quite high but we were never going to get an easy draw.

"It's not often you get the chance to play in Europe so we are going to make the most of it and enjoy it.

"The younger boys at the club can only benefit, it's a different type of football and so it will be a great experience. And I am going to enjoy it as I enjoyed the Scottish Cup final last season."

Ties are to be played over two legs on August 14 and 28.
