Barcelona will meet Arsenal in the league phase of the Women’s Champions League this season after Friday’s draw in Nyon, Switzerland.
The reigning champions will host Arsenal, Paris FC and Swiss side Servette, and also face away trips to Bayern Munich, Roma and HB Koge of Denmark.

Renee Slegers’s charges will also visit Paris FC and Inter Milan, and welcome Benfica and Koge to north London.
Their fellow Women’s Super League (WSL) outfit Chelsea face a French double-header at home to Paris Saint-Germain and away to Lyon.
In addition to their two English opponents, Jonatan Giraldez’s Lyon will travel to Italy to take on Juventus and play a home tie with Serie A runners-up Inter.
Other notable league phase fixtures include WSL winners Manchester City’s trip to Real Madrid and PSG hosting Bayern.
The first matchday will take place on September 22 and 23.
