Arsenal were handed an intriguing tie against former England boss Steve McClaren's FC Twente in the Champions League third qualifying round.
McClaren was appointed by the Dutch side in June this year, taking his first job since he was sacked by England in November 2007.
Liverpool have been drawn against Belgium's Standard Liege.
And Rangers will play the winner of the second-round match between Aalborg and Modrica if they can overcome Kaunas.
Rangers drew 0-0 at Ibrox in the first leg of their second round qualifier against the Lithuanian side on Wednesday and will play the return leg next week.
McClaren has pitted his wits against Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger before, when he was in charge of Middlesbrough.
But it is unlikely he will relish retuning to England for a match that Arsenal will be strong favourites to win.
McClaren may not be the only coach returning to his native country as former Arsenal boss Bruce Rioch could be taking Danish champions Aalborg to Rangers.
Former Scotland captain Rioch's side have a 5-0 first-leg lead over Modrica so should make it through to the third qualifying round.
Liverpool, who were beaten by Chelsea in the semi-finals last year, will fancy their chances of getting past Standard Liege.
The Reds will play their first leg away from home - as will Arsenal and Rangers, too, provided the Glasgow side make it through.
Elsewhere in the draw, highly-fancied Barcelona will play either Beitar Jerusalem or Wisla Krakow and Italian giants Juventus face Tampere United or Artmedia Bratislava.
