Greek football clubs in European competitions

Ajax will start its Champions League campaign against unbeaten Greek league winner PAOK Thessaloniki in the third qualifying round drawn Monday.
Last season, four-time European champion Ajax reached the semifinals in May having entered the competition in the second preliminary round in July.

The European cup qualifying rounds' draws were smooth enough for most Greek teams on Monday, though not for Greek champion AEK.

The Yellows will join the Champions League from the third qualifying round facing the winner of the tie between Celtic and Rosenborg. The games will be played on August 7 or 8 in Scotland or Norway, and the return is in Athens on August 14.

Olympiakos and AEK have got what probably was the worst possible draw for the third qualifying round of the Champions League on Friday, as they picked the mightiest of their potential opponents in each case.
