NEWCASTLE United have been drawn against FC Levadia Tallinn in the First Round of the UEFA Cup.

The Magpies will meet the Estonian outfit over two legs on September 14 and 28. The dates and the home/away sequencing remain subject to final confirmation from UEFA.

Should United progress against FC Levadia Tallinn then they will enter the UEFA Cup group stages.

Levadia play at the Kadrioru Stadium, which has a capacity of just 4,700, though they used the Le Coq Stadium for their second qualifying round win over FC Twente.

They currently top the Estonian league having won 22 and drawn two of their 24 domestic matches so far. They have also scored 78 goals and conceded just 13 in the process.

Levadia disposed of FC Haka of Finland in the first qualifying round before seeing off Dutch opponents FC Twente 2-1 on aggregate in the second qualifying round to set up a meeting with Newcastle.
