Some cried, some laughed after the Champions League draw

Arsenal have an easy schedule in the Champions League qualifying round this season.

Arsenal are ranked third in Opta’s list of teams with the easiest fixtures in the Champions League qualifying round, with the Gunners’ schedule including much weaker opponents such as Bilbao (Spain), Club Brugge (Belgium), Olympiacos (Greece), Slavia Praha (Czech Republic) and Kairat Almaty (Kazakhstan).

Despite big games against Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich and Inter Milan, this is the most favourable fixture list that Mikel Arteta could have hoped for. Tottenham Hotspur, meanwhile, have a relatively easy schedule. Thomas Frank's side will face Slavia Praha, Monaco, Frankfurt, Copenhagen, Villarreal and Bodo Glimt - all of whom are comfortable opponents.

Despite facing two big teams in Paris Saint-Germain and Dortmund, compared to the worse case scenarios, Spurs are still one of the teams that benefited from the Champions League draw.

Chelsea also have a relatively easy schedule. They face weaker opponents such as Benfica, Atalanta, Ajax (Netherlands), Qarabag (Azerbaijan) and newcomers Pafos (Cyprus), promising to bring the opportunity to accumulate points before bigger challenges from Barcelona, Bayern Munich, and Napoli.

Chelsea benefit from an easy fixture list.

Meanwhile, Arne Slot's Liverpool have to face Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan. Matches with Marseille and Galatasaray are also full of challenges. Pep Guardiola's Manchester City also have a difficult schedule, facing Real Madrid, Leverkusen, Villarreal, Dortmund, Napoli and Galatasaray.
