The waiting is nearly over!
The draw for this season's Champions League group stage takes place in Istanbul, Turkey on Thursday evening, with Premier League giants Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City and Tottenham all discovering their fate.
UEFA have confirmed which eight teams will be included in Pot 1, with six more teams yet to qualify via this week's play-off round. As such, it's still difficult to determine how the draw will play out, although we can get a good idea of the teams they want to avoid.
Here, Mirror Football takes a look at the best and worst groups for each of the four Premier League sides. Remember, teams from the same country can't play each other in the first round, while Pots 2 to 4 are based on UEFA coefficient rankings.
Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham
Neither Liverpool nor Chelsea have qualified for Pot 1, despite being ranked second and fifth respectively on UEFA's list. That means they could be drawn against defending Real Madrid, AC Milan, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain.
Thanks to their high ranking, both teams will be in Pot 2. The likes of Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Juventus and Tottenham - who are ranked 14th on UEFA's list - will be in the same category, although there are plenty of decent teams expected to be in Pots 3 and 4. These include Inter Milan, Napoli and Celtic.

The latter's Old Firm rivals will also be in either Pot 3 or 4 if they qualify for the competition. That means Liverpool, Chelsea or Tottenham could face Rangers if they beat PSV Eindhoven in their two-legged qualifier. The first game at Ibrox finished 2-2.
Although that makes for worrying reading for Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham fans, there's every chance they could get a comfortable group. Europa League winners Eintracht Frankfurt, Portuguese champions Porto and Dutch champions Ajax are all in Pot 1.
Teams like RB Salzburg, Shakhtar Donetsk, Sporting Lisbon, Bayer Levekusen, Marseille and Club Brugge can be found further down the coefficient rankings, While Qarabag, Viktoria Plzen, Bodo/Glimit, Dinamo Zagreb, Maccabi Haifa, Red Star Belgrade, Copenhagen, Trabzonspor, Dynamo Kyiv and Benfica all have a chance of qualifying via a play-off.
