Arsenal, Manchester City, and Celtic discovered their opponents for the Women's Champions League qualifying second round on Monday. All three teams will play their first leg matches away from home.

Jonas Eidevall's Arsenal, who defeated Rangers and Rosenborg to reach this stage, will face BK Hacken. The Swedish team reached the quarter-finals last year for the first time since the 2012-13 season. BK Hacken also played against Arsenal in the 2011-12 tournament's last eight, where Arsenal won 3-2 on aggregate.

Champions League Draws for Arsenal, Man City

Manchester City will begin their Champions League campaign against Paris FC after finishing second in the Women's Super League last season. Paris FC beat Real Madrid both home and away last year but finished third in a group that included Chelsea and BK Hacken.

Celtic, the only British team involved in the Champions Path draw, will face Ukrainian champions Vorskla Poltava. The first legs of these two-legged ties are scheduled for September 18 and 19, with the return legs on September 25 and 26.

The winners of these round-two qualifying fixtures will advance to the group stages of the competition. They will join Barcelona, Lyon, Bayern Munich, and Chelsea in the next phase.

The anticipation is high as fans look forward to these exciting matchups. Each team aims to secure a spot in the prestigious group stages of the Women's Champions League.
