The Republic of Ireland will host games next year as part of qualifying for the 2021 UEFA Under-19 and Under 17 championships.

Tom Mohan's under 19 side have been drawn in Group 7 along with Poland, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Estonia.

Those matches will take place on November 11, 14 and 17, with the venues set to be announced in due course.

The top two in each group will automatically join top seeds Portugal in the elite round in spring 2021.

The qualifiers from that phase will go into the main tournament with hosts Romania.

The draw was also made for the qualifying round for the 2021 European under-17 Championships.

Colin O'Brien's side have been drawn in Group 3 with Northern Ireland, Estonia and Slovakia.

Those matches will take place on October 21, 24 and 27, with the venues set to be announced at a later date.

Hosts Cyprus qualify automatically so the other 54 teams will compete in qualifying (two phases) to determine the remaining 15 spots in the final tournament.
