Turkish football club Medipol Başakşehir will face stronger opponents in this season's UEFA Champions League campaign.

Başakşehir will play against French powerhouse Paris Saint-Germain, English team Manchester United, and Germany's RB Leipzig in the Champions League Group H.

The group stage draw for the 2020-21 season was held in Switzerland's Geneva on Thursday.

The group winner and runner-up will advance to the Champions League's knockout stage.

The third-place team will go to the UEFA Europa League once the group stage ends.
