Read our privacy notice.The full Champions League group stage schedule has been revealed, meaning the six Premier League sides competing have learned their travel itineraries.
Arsenal performed best of any English side last year, reaching the semi-finals, and will open their redemption bid with a trip to Bilbao to face Athletic Club.
To play the Kazakh outfit away would have warranted a near 7,000-mile round trip to central Asia.
Meanwhile, Chelsea’s push for a third Champions League honour will begin at the site of their first - Munich’s Allianz Arena.
They do face an arduous away day, though, and will travel to Azerbaijan to face Qarabag in November.
Tottenham and Newcastle both face the unenviable prospect of facing reigning champions Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes.
