Champions path
Conditions of the draw
In accordance with paragraphs 13.05 and 13.06 of the Regulations of the UEFA Europa Conference League 2023/24, the UEFA administration formed groups and seeded clubs for the play-off draw based on their entry stage in the competition. The clubs entering from the third qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League were seeded above the clubs that progress from the third qualifying round of the UEFA Europa Conference League champions path.
The ten teams (the five winners of the UEFA Europa Conference League third qualifying round champions path ties, indicated for the purposes of this draw as Winners of Matches 1 to 5, and the five teams that enter through the third qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League champions path, indicated for the purposes of this draw as Matches 1 to 5) were divided into one group of four teams (Group 1) and one group of six teams (Group 2).
Within each of the two groups, the teams were divided into an equal number of seeded and unseeded teams.
As decided by the UEFA Executive Committee, teams from Kosovo and Bosnia-Herzegovina could not be drawn against each other.
Any changes of date and fixture reversals will be communicated in writing to the clubs and national associations by 18:00 CET on 8 August.
Draw procedure
Starting with Group 1, three bowls were prepared for the draw, with the balls representing the seeded and unseeded teams of the group placed in the corresponding marked bowls.
One ball was taken from each bowl and placed in the third empty central bowl, where they were shuffled. The first team drawn from this bowl plays their first match at home against the second team drawn.
The same procedure was carried out with the remaining balls to complete all the pairings for Group 1.
The procedure was then repeated to determine the pairings for Group 2.

Match 1: FK Žalgiris Vilnius (LTU) / BK Häcken (SWE)
Match 2: FC Sheriff Tiraspol (MDA) / FC BATE Borisov (BLR)
Winners of match 1: Hamrun Spartans FC (MLT) / Ferencvárosi TC (HUN)
Winners of match 2: FC Ballkani (KOS) / Lincoln Red Imps FC (GIB)

Main path
Conditions of the draw
In accordance with paragraphs 13.03 and 13.04 of the Regulations of the UEFA Europa Conference League 2023/24, the UEFA administration seeded clubs for the play-off draw based on the club rankings established at the beginning of the season and the principles set by the Club Competitions Committee.
The 34 teams (five that enter the competition at this stage, 27 that enter through the third qualifying round of the UEFA Europa Conference League main path and two that enter through the UEFA Europa League third qualifying round main path) were divided into three groups of eight teams (Groups 1 to 3) and one group of ten teams (Group 4).
Within each of the four groups, the teams were divided into an equal number of seeded and unseeded teams.
Teams from the same association could not be drawn against each other.
If any club in a third qualifying round match had a coefficient that entitled it to be seeded for the play-off draw, the winner of that match was automatically seeded for the draw.
Any changes of date and fixture reversals will be communicated in writing to the clubs and national associations by 18:00 CET on 8 August.
Draw procedure
Groups 1 to 3
All the clubs in each of the three groups were randomly assigned a number: 1 to 4 for the seeded teams and 5 to 8 for the unseeded teams.
Three bowls were prepared for the draw, with the balls containing the numbers for the seeded and unseeded teams for Groups 1 to 3 placed in the correspondingly marked bowls.
One ball was taken from each of those bowls and placed in the third empty central bowl, where they were shuffled. The number shown from the first ball drawn from this bowl indicated the home teams of the first pairing of all three groups, and they play against the teams indicated by the number of the ball drawn second from this bowl.
For example, if the first ball drawn contained the number 2 and the second the number 8, the clubs that were assigned the numbers 2 and 8 in each of the three groups play each other. The first ball drawn, here containing the number 2, designates the home team for the first leg in all three ties.
The same procedure was carried out with the remaining balls to complete the pairings of these three groups.
Group 4
The procedure for this group was exactly the same as above, with the only difference being that the seeded teams were assigned numbers 1 to 5 and the unseeded teams assigned numbers 6 to 10.
