The draw for this season's group stage draw has been made.

Chelsea could be facing a difficult group stage in this season's competition following Friday's draw. 

Real Madrid, a team to avoid, will join Emma Hayes' side in Group D, along with Paris FC who already have one English scalp after knocking out Arsenal in the qualifiers. 

Swedish side Hacken's chances to get out of this group maybe slim, but they are currently top of the Swedish league and therefore will be no pushover. 

Elsewhere, defending champions Barcelona will face Rosengard, Benfica and Eintracht Frankfurt in Group A as they begin the defence of their title. 

The full group stage draw can be found below.
