Arsenal await their 2022/23 UEFA Europa League group opponents, with the draw set to take place tomorrow at lunchtime (Friday).
Having finished in 5th position in the Premier League last season, the Gunners will be joined by Manchester United from England.
Eintracht Frankfurt were last season's victors after a strong campaign, seeing off Rangers in the final via a penalty shootout victory.
Rangers secured their spot in the UEFA Champions League, having seen off PSV Eindhoven yesterday evening, with fellow Scottish side Hearts and Irish side Shamrock Rovers looking to turn around their deficits to qualify for the Europa League group stages.

But who else is competing in this season's Europa League? football.london takes a look...
Premier League:
As mentioned, both Arsenal and Manchester United book their spot in the group stages of the competition, having finished 5th and 6th in the table last season.
La Liga:
Both Real Betis and Real Sociedad gained automatic progression to the group stages from Spain, with Spanish sides known to perform well in the past in this competition.
Bundesliga:
Union Berlin and Freiburg will bring up the Bundesliga's representatives, having enjoyed strong campaigns, respectively. Freiburg will feature at this stage for the first time since the 2013/14 season.
Serie A:
Italian outfit Lazio and Roma have qualified for the group stages from Serie A. Jose Mourinho's Roma, of course, lifted the UEFA Europa Conference League last year, giving them automatic qualification.
Ligue 1:
Rennes and Nantes will be the French representation. Rennes recorded an impressive 5th placed finish, whilst Nantes qualified following their Coupe de France success last season. Monaco will also be involved following their exit from the UEFA Champions League qualifying process, losing out to PSV.
