Sligo Rovers vs Motherwell on TV as Premier Sports to show Europa Conference League clash

Motherwell's do-or-die clash with Sligo Rovers will be shown live on Premier Sports. Graham Alexander's men trail the League of Ireland side 1-0 from a disappionting opening leg at Fir Park and have it all to do to clinch a place in the third round of UEFA Europa Conference League qualifying.

A goal from former Hearts star Aidan Keena was enough to give Sligo victory in Lanarkshire and they'll now look to protect that precious advantage in Thursday night's return clash. The reward for the victors is a third round tie with either Viking FK or Sparta Prague.

But to get themselves into that draw, the Scottish Premiership side will need to drastically improve from last week. Motherwell will certainly take a healthy travelling support across the Irish Sea but those who can't make the trip won't miss out. Premier have snapped up the match at The Showgrounds, with kick-off at 7pm.

Motherwell's chief executive Alan Burrows has revealed the Steelmen will only receive 300 tickets for the clash and updated fans on how they will be allocated. He tweeted: "Sligo have told us we will get around 300 tickets for the match at the Showgrounds on 28 July.

“We will contact those 22/23 season ticket holders randomly picked in the ballot from tomorrow onwards to arrange payment / distribution etc."
