Scottish champions Celtic have been drawn to face Spanish side Valencia in the last 32 of the Europa League.

Valencia are 14th in La Liga and finished third in their Champions League group, behind Juventus and Manchester United.

Premier League side Arsenal play Bate Borisov of Belarus, while Chelsea – who won the competition in 2013 – take on Swedish side Malmo.

Most of the two-legged ties will be played on the 14 and 21 February 2019.

Arsenal’s home second leg will be on Wednesday, 20 February at 17:00 GMT.

The Gunners and Chelsea were both seeded for the draw, meaning they host their second legs and teams from the same city cannot play at home on the same night.

The timing of the fixture is to avoid a clash with the Champions League games taking place later on that Wednesday.
