Cardiff will learn their opponents for the 2020/21 Champions Hockey League on Wednesday 3 June at 1700 UK time.
The draw, which was moved back after the 2020 World Championships were cancelled, will see 32 teams drawn straight into a Round of 32. The CHL previously announced changes to its format due to the delayed season start in much of Europe.
The Devils are among 15 other clubs in Pot 2 of the draw, and will face one of the sides ranked 1-16 – ranging from the likes of four-time winners Frölunda, and previous finalists Kärpät Oulu and Red Bull Munich to debutants Straubing Tigers and the returning HC Davos – who Cardiff beat in 2017.
