Forward Sion Bradley says The New Saints will 鈥済ive it a good go鈥 when they face Hungary鈥檚 Ferencvaros in Champions League qualifying.

Cymru Premier champions Saints secured their place in the second qualifying round with a 4-1 win over FK Decic of Montenegro.

Craig Harrison鈥檚 side go to Budapest for Tuesday鈥檚 first leg against the Hungarian champions.

鈥淚t will be a challenge against them,鈥 Bradley said.

鈥淲e know that three of their players played for Hungary in the Euros.

鈥淚鈥檓 sure we will all do our homework and we鈥檒l prepare as best we can for the game and give it a good go.鈥

The winners of the TNS-Ferencvaros tie will face either Andorra's UE Santa Coloma or Danish side FC Midtjylland in the third qualifying round.

Ferencvaros goalkeeper D茅nes Dibusz, defender Endre Botka and striker Barnab谩s Varga were members of Hungary鈥檚 squad at Euro 2024.

Varga fractured his cheekbone in a collision with Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn during Hungary鈥檚 1-0 win in Stuttgart.

The 29-year-old had successful surgery and after being discharged from hospital returned home to Hungary.

Varga has said he is set for "a few weeks of rest" to 鈥渇ocus on his recovery鈥.

Saints advanced to the second qualifying round after overcoming Decic 鈥 winning 3-0 in the first leg at Park Hall before a 1-1 draw out in Montenegro.

鈥淲e knew it was going to be a different game out there and it was really hot,鈥 Bradley added.

鈥淚t was around 40 degrees out there in the afternoon and still around 30 at night for the game.

鈥淏ut we made sure we saw the game out. We got that early goal and it was just a matter of defending the box and just get ourselves through to that next round.鈥

Bradley joined Saints in the summer from Caernarfon Town following a campaign in which he won the Cymru Premier player of the season of the award and scored the winning goal for Wales C against England.

The 26-year-old has made the step up to full-time football with Saints, the Cymru Premier鈥檚 only fully professional club.

鈥淚鈥檓 enjoying it,鈥 Bradley told 大象传媒 Radio Cymru programme Ar y Marc.

鈥淭o go out and play football every day is totally different to what I鈥檓 used to.

鈥淏ut I鈥檓 really enjoying it and really settling in well.鈥
