Prague date for Hearts

25/08/06

Hearts will play Sparta Prague in the first round of the UEFA Cup after the draw was made in Monaco on Friday.

The Jambos were eliminated from the Champions League qualifiers in midweek by AEK Athens to parachute into the UEFA Cup.

Hearts are set to play at Murrayfield in the second leg, scheduled for September 28, after travelling to the Czech Republic a fortnight earlier.

Hearts have had mixed fortunes against clubs from the Czech Republic.

They defeated Sparta's local rivals, Slavia Prague, at the same stage of the tournament 14 years ago.

But the Jambos were beaten by Dukla Prague in a penalty shoot-out in the UEFA Cup first round in the 1986-1987 season.

The draw offers a return to the Czech Republic for Hearts players such as ex-Sparta forward Michal Pospisil and Roman Bednar.

Scottish clubs do not have a good record against Czech teams, however, suffering 10 defeats from 15 ties in European competition.
