About the Premier League International Cup:
The competition was introduced at the beginning of the 2014/15 season and features 12 of the Premier League 2 sides in England, who come up against 12 of the best Academy sides from across Europe, split into three groups.
Leeds United have been drawn in Group A, alongside PSV, Hertha BSC, Nice, Sparta Praha, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Nottingham Forest and Blackburn Rovers.
The Premier League 2 teams do not face one another in the group stage and likewise, the European teams do not play each other either.
From the three groups, the top two advance directly to the knock-out stages, with the two best third place sides also advancing to the next round, which is the Quarter-Finals.
In the knock-out stage, all of the matches will be played in England in a one-off game with extra-time and penalties used if required, should the match be level after 90 minutes.
The current holders of the competition are PSV Eindhoven, having won the competition by beating Crystal Palace in the final at the end of the 2022/23 campaign.
