    Primavera to find out Youth League opponents on Monday


    Alberto De Rossi's Primavera side will discover their next UEFA Youth League opponents on Monday.

    The Under-19s, who progressed from their 'Champions League Path' group as runners-up behind Real Madrid, are thus now in the 'play-off' phase of the competition - where they will face one of the eight sides that progressed from the 'Domestic Champions' path of the competition.

    That includes eight teams, who all won their domestic championships last season but did not see their senior side qualify for the Champions League.

    Among the possible sides the Giallorossi could face are Premier League side Chelsea and Bundesliga club Hertha Berlin.

    The play-off round is a single leg affair, with the sides from the Champions League path playing away. The Giallorossi will thus travel to face their opponent on either February 19 or 20.

    The winners progress to the last-16 of the competition, where they will face one of the group winners from the Champions League path in another single leg tie (with the home side drawn at random).

    Roma's best-ever performance in the UEFA Youth League saw the side reach the Final Four during the 2014-15 campaign.

    That side included the likes of Lorenzo Pellegrini, Toni Sanabria, Arturo Calabresi and Daniele Verde.
