Chief executive Paul Barber is looking forward to more ‘special’ European nights after the draw for the group stages of the UEFA Conference League was made on Friday.

Albion will host Monaco, Universitatae Craiova and Kauno Zalgiris and visit Panathinaikos, Getafe and Jablonec when the group stages get underway in October.

After watching the draw in Monaco, Barber said, “I think being back in Europe is always fantastic for us. It's only our second time in 125 years.

“The fans are going to be looking forward to some very good trips - back to Athens again, to Madrid and over to the Czech Republic.

“We're really looking forward to those three away games, and of course we've got three big home games.

“Nights at the Amex for European games are pretty special. We had a great campaign in the Europa League, and we're really looking forward to this one as well.”
