MOTHERWELL'S Europa League first qualifying round second-leg tie against Llanelli has been moved from the Reds' home ground to the Parc y Scarlets.
The venue is the home of Scarlets and Llanelli Rugby Football Club and has a capacity of just under 15,000.
Llanelli's Stebonheath Park's 3,700 capacity was deemed unsuitable for the number of travelling 'Well fans. Motherwell have been allocated 3,300 tickets for the game against the Welsh Premier League runners-up on 9 July.
The decision to switch venues means neither club will play the home leg of the tie at their own grounds.
Motherwell's Fir Park pitch is undergoing extensive repairs and they will host Llanelli on 2 July at Airdrie United's Excelsior Stadium.
