Italian soccer giants Juventus have been drawn against nine-time European Cup winner Real Madrid in the group stage of the Champions League.

The Turin club, which qualified for the Champions League in its first year back after a Calciopoli-induced year in Serie B, has won Europe's premier trophy twice.

Italian champions Inter Milan, bidding for its first European Cup since it won two in the mid Sixties, was drawn against Werder Bremen of Germany while 1984 runner-up AS Roma got last year's runner-up Chelsea.

Fiorentina, a surprise qualifier, has been drawn in Lyon's group.

Seven-time winner AC Milan did not qualify for the Champions League last season.
