Champions Real Madrid are in Group F alongside Leipzig, Celtic and Shakhtar.
Liverpool, who lost to Madrid in last season’s final, are in Group A with Napoli, Ajax and Rangers.
In Group E Chelsea will battle Serie A holders AC Milan, Salzburg and Dinamo Zagreb while Manchester City will face Sevilla, Dortmund and Copenhagen.

The first round of match will be played on 6 or 7 September 2022.
This season’s final will be played at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul, Turkey.
