The fixture list for the playoff round stage of the 2019/2020 Champions League season has been drawn. The third qualifying round saw the exit of some high profile teams, prominent among them Celtic and Porto, while last season’s semi-finalists Ajax Amsterdam were taken the distance by Greek side PAOK.
Krasnodar’s reward for upsetting Porto in Portugal is a tasty tie against Olympiakos. Cluj have been given Czech opponents in the form of Slavia Prague.
Austrian club LASK, who knocked out Basel (who had previous beaten PSV), will play Simon Mignolet and Club Brugge, who edged out Dynamo Kyiv.
