CHELSEA return to Champions League action as they defend the title they won in 2021.
The Blues only managed to finish second to Juventus after a sloppy 3-3 draw at Zenit on the last day of the group stage.
And that left them with one of the group winners in the last 16.
However, Thomas Tuchel’s men will have been happy to land Lille rather than one of the more fancied sides.
The French champions looked down and out in their group after just two points from the first three matches.
But they then won all their last three against Sevilla, Salzburg and Wolfsburg to clinch top spot and a home second leg in the last 16.
