Hi

Does anyone know how the UCL preliminary round was decided to be in Gibraltar this year and how it would be decided going forward?

The 4 countries with a team in the CL-PR can apply to host it, and then UEFA will choose 1 of them (if more then 1 applies).

Thanks.

Northern Ireland have dropped into the bottom 4 this year, with Gibraltar overtaking them.

Yeah definitely, it's only a matter of time until Kosovo pass them.

Hopefully the UCL preliminary round is hosted in NI in the next few years so. It would be a fun trip to take in for myself (I'm based in Republic of Ireland).

Northern Ireland champion will not play in CL-PR yet in 2019 (since the 2018 ranking is used for that).
They will play in CL-PR in 2020.

Are you sure that each win in the perliminary round gives 1 point?

The PR is part of qualifying, so yes also in this round a win will get clubs 1 point and a draw 0.5.
