Manchester United face Villarreal, who beat them in the 2021 Europa League final. They will also play Italian club Atalanta and the Swiss side Young Boys.

Liverpool are in a tough group that features Atletico Madrid, Porto and AC Milan.

Social media reaction

It has to be argued that out of all the English teams, Manchester United will probably be the happiest. They will be wanting to improve on their last Champions League campaign where they knocked out at the Group Stages.

Chelsea will also be relatively happy with their draw despite facing Juventus, The Italian club will still be feared despite potentially losing Cristiano Ronaldo to Manchester City. 

Manchester City and Liverpool both have history against the teams that they are facing. Liverpool beat AC Milan in the 2005 Champions League final in a match that is often regarded as one of the greatest matches of all time. They then played the same team in the 2007 final when they lost 2-1. 

City faced PSG in last season's competition. They progressed on that occasion but the French side now have Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos to call on. How much of an impact will those two players have? You can read more Manchester City news by heading to Greater Manchester Football..
