Arsenal and Celtic await Champions League playoff fate
Celtic earned their place in the pot thanks to a 2-1 aggregate win over Dinamo Moscow during third-round qualifying and now have a one in five chance of facing Arsene Wenger's men to claim their place in the group stages.
The draw will consist of two parts as 20 teams compete for 10 places.
The 10 remaining clubs who did not win their domestic competition - such as Arsenal and Celtic - will compete for five places in the group stage. This is known as the 'non-champions path'.
In this 'path', Arsenal are one of five seeded teams - along with Lyon, Sporting Lisbon, Panathinaikos and Stuttgart - and they will be drawn against the non-seeded teams - Celtic, Ateltico Madrid, Anderlecht, Fiorentina and Timisoara.
The 10 other clubs who did finish champions are allocated to the 'champions path' and follow the same format.
The five winners from each section join the 22 automatic entrants in the group stage.
The play-offs will be played over two legs on Aug 18/19 and 25/26.
