Arsenal to face Lyon in Women's Champions League
Holders Arsenal will take on eight-time winners Lyon, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid in the new-look league phase in this season's Women's Champions League.
Arsenal are one of three English sides in the draw with Chelsea and newcomers Manchester United.
The Gunners, who beat Barcelona 1-0 in last season's final, will also play Benfica, Twente and OH Leuven in the 18-team league phase, in which all clubs play six matches -- three at home and three away.
The top four in the standings qualify directly for the quarter-finals, while the teams finishing fifth to 12th will advance to a knockout play-off round.
The first round of games in the league stage will be played on October 7-8.
Under the revised format that replaces the old group stage, aligning the competition more closely with the men's version, two more teams take part in the single-league phase.
