The UEFA Champions League draw has been revealed, and the top four Premier League teams from the 2014-15 season have been included.
Chelsea have been placed in Group G, and Blues fans will be pleased to have avoided facing any of European football’s big guns in the early stages.
They will be facing Porto, Dynamo Kiev and Maccabi Tel-Aviv.
Meanwhile, Manchester City face Juventus while Arsenal will take on Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.
Manchester United will face Wolfsburg, CSKA Moscow and PSV Eindhoven in the group stage, drawing a mixed reaction from Red Devils fans.
Arsenal fans were understandably disappointed with their team’s draw while Chelsea fans were predictably excited about not having to face teams like Juventus or Bayern Munich.

Just seen the draw for #arsenal. Not ideal but should be ok if we play well. Chelsea with another walkover group.
