The draw for the third round of the Champions League was made today, and while the two English sides were able to avoid some of the better possible opponents, Schalke 04 v. Athletico Madrid offers the most attractive match to be played later this month.
In another intriguing twist, Arsenal have been paired with FC Twente of the Dutch league, managed by none other than former England boss Steve McClaren. Good luck, Steve.
Other highlights include:
Standard Liege (BEL) v. Liverpool
Barcelona v. Beitar Jerusalem (ISR) or Wisla Krakow (POL)
Juventus v. Tampere United (FIN) or Artmedia Petrzalka (SVK)
SK Brann (NOR) or FK Ventspils (LVA) v. Olympique Marseille
ACF Fiorentina v. SK Slavia Prague (CZE)
Aalborg BK (DEN) or FK Modriča (BIH) v. Rangers or FBK Kaunas (LTU)
