The Lilywhites are back in Europa League and ready to deliver another memorable performance like that 2016, when they reached the stage groups. Despite their exit, still being first squad to represent the league in the international scene is somehow a grand achievement.
This campaign after arming themselves with new faces and making a struggle in the league top with the league defending champions Cork City leading them by just a point.
Their new European adventure will start come July against Estonia top team Levadia Tallinn and starting their European adventure, after their last edition exiting abruptly in the second round to Norwegian side Rosenburg.
For the Estonian once again seeing a repeat of another League of Ireland representative after last year loss to Cork City in the first round, this time they have another hardened squad in the Town Boys coming with an all-around momentum.
As Kadriorg Stadium will live up again the emotion of the Europa League knockout rounds with the visit of the Lilywhites on July 12 and later move on July 19 to Oriel Park for the second leg of this series seeing Dundalk FC as the overall favorites.
Still for Stephen Kenny and company is back to business and now looking forward to a successful run in this event and maybe looking forward to another 2016 repeat, but for them this is an uphill fight to make it into the coveted stage group.
To juggle league play and currently in a race to the top as the Leesiders leading them by a point but any moment these can catapult them to the top with a blink of an eye and now with Cup play and international play.
Certainly the heat is on a challenging task for this Dundalk FC squad looking at any cost to their return to the league top as well claim this edition league shield and maybe other trophies to their halls along a pass to this important tournament to play the best of Europe.
After a break in League play the Lilywhites are back in action come this Friday and prepare themselves to another contested match, with their league foes, both mentally and physically, these De Town Boys are ready for whatever challenge comes their way.
In addition, to mention the way these are displaying one amazing and one of a kind game of football.
Once again, the Lilywhites are up and ready to start their European adventure in Tallinn, Estonia and looking forward to deliver another repeat of those amazing performances these deliver on 2016 reaching the group stages in Europa League.
