Brighton and Hove Albion confirm Conference League schedule | OneFootball

Brighton and Hove Albion will open their Conference League campaign at home to Kauno Zalgiris, with a six-match schedule now set.

According to TheArgus.co.uk, the curtain-raiser arrives three days before Albion host Crystal Palace in the league, with Kauno still in domestic action as the Lithuanian season runs until early November. Crystal Palace are away to Lyon in the Europa League before their M23 trip.

The second outing sends the Seagulls to the Czech Republic to face FK Jablonec less than 72 hours before a Premier League visit to Anfield.

Two weeks later they visit Getafe in the Madrid suburbs, before an unusually early 5.45pm kick-off at home to Universitatea Craiova.

AS Monaco’s visit is seen as the glamour home tie in early December, and a trip to Athens to face Panathinaikos a week later will stir fond memories for many Albion fans.

Kick-off times are listed in UK time. October 15: FK Kauno Zalgiris (H), 8pm. October 22: FK Jablonec (A), 5.45pm. November 5: Getafe (A), 8pm. November 26: Universitatea Craiova (H), 5.45pm. December 10: AS Monaco (H), 8pm. December 17: Panathinaikos (A), 8pm.
