Champions League draw
28/08/2009
Chelsea have been drawn against Porto, Atlético Madrid and APOEL for the Champions League group stage.
Portuguese champions, and José Mourinho’s old team, Porto have been frequent opponents in this tournament, having faced us in the group stage in 2004/05 and the knockout stage in 2006/07.
Atlético Madrid from Spain and APOEL from Cyprus, will be new opponents.
“We have to generally be pleased with the draw,” said chief executive Peter Kenyon. "There are no easy games and no easy groups.
“We have played Porto twice in the competition and ex-Porto players have been an important part of Chelsea's history. We know Porto better than most.”
