Hoops handed tough Moscow test
New boss Tony Mowbray will take charge of his first competitive match with the Hoops against Dynamo, who currently sit seventh in the Russian Premier League and finished third in the table in 2008.
The two-legged tie will be played on July 28/29 and August 4/5, with the winners progressing to a play-off to enter the group stage.
Dynamo, currently managed by Andrey Kobelev, boast a strong squad including experienced Russia internationals Dmitry Khokhlov, Aleksandr Kerzhakov and Denis Kolodin.
Former Middlesbrough and Bristol City right-back Luke Wilkshire, a regular for Australia, is also in their ranks.
Celtic will attempt to qualify for the group stage for the first time in four years after Rangers secured last year's SPL title on the final day.
Elsewhere in the draw, which was held in Nyon, Steve McClaren's FC Twente were paired with Sporting Lisbon.

Greek champions Olympiacos will tackle either Zrinjski or Slovan Bratislava.
The Piraeus club failed to reach the group stage of last season's competition, suffering a surprising loss to Anorthosis Famagusta.

Zrinjski, who are the Bosnian league winners, hold a 1-0 advantage over Slovan after the opening leg of their second
qualifying round clash.
Czech title-holders Slavia Prague will take on either Finnish side Inter Turku or Sheriff Tiraspol of Moldova.
