Borussia Dortmund will face Zenit St. Petersburg, Lazio and Club Brugge in Group F.

RB Leipzig - semi-finalists last season - kick off their campaign in Group H alongside last year's losing finalists Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United and Istanbul Basaksehir.

Borussia Mönchengladbach - returning to the competition after a four-year hiatus - will face Real Madrid, Inter Milan and Shakhtar Donetsk in Group B.

Bayern have been European champions six times. Dortmund, who were pipped by Bayern in the all-German 2013 showpiece, last lifted the title in 1997, while Gladbach were European Cup runners up in 1977. Leipzig are embarking on just their third Champions League campaign.
