GRAY SKIES OVER LEITH AFTER DRAW

DAVID GRAY admits Hibs will have their work cut out after being drawn against Midtjylland in the Europa League.

- BY DARREN JOHNSTONE

The Leith outfit travel to Denmark for the first leg of the second qualifying round tie on July 24 before the return tie a week later.

Midtjylland only missed out on back-to-back league titles by a point last season and competed in the Champions League group stage as recently as the 2020-21 campaign.

Anderlecht, Shakhtar Donetsk and Sheriff Tiraspol were among the other seeded teams Hibs could have landed.

And boss Gray concedes the draw has not been kind to his boys.
