Manchester United face some long-distance midweek trips after being drawn in a Europa League group with Astana, Partizan Belgrade and AZ Alkmaar.
Ole Gunnar Solskaer’s team are set to play in Group L as they enter the competition for the first time since they lifted the trophy in 2017.
United could not be drawn against fellow top seeds and five-time winners Sevilla but will face a 6,000 kilometre round trip to Nur-Sultan in Kazakhstan to face Astana.
