Champions League group stage draw: Arsenal get Sevilla, Man United to play Kane’s Bayern Munich

English Premier League side, Manchester United have been drawn with Harry Kane’s Bayern Munich in their Champions League group, while Newcastle were handed seemingly the toughest draw of the group stage with Paris Saint-Germain, Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan.

Erik Ten Hag’s side were also paired with FC Copenhagen from Denmark and Turkish side Galatasaray in Group A.

Another EPL side in Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal, who are playing in their first Champions League group-stage campaign in seven years, the Gunners were given a favourable draw with Europa League winners Sevilla, Dutch club PSV Eindhoven and French RC Lens of France.

Manchester City were also handed a favourable draw as they were paired with RB Leipzig for the third Champions League campaign in a row, as well as Red Star Belgrade and Swiss club Young Boys.

Spanish giants Atletico Madrid play the likes of Lazio, and the Dutch champions Feyenoord and Celtic.

However, Newcastle’s group is seen as the most difficult, with visits to the Parc des Princes, the San Siro, and Signal Iduna Park for their first Champions League group stage match since the 2002–03 season.
