With the Champions League draw having thrown up three opponents yet to be faced in this competition, chelseafc.com has been on the look out for a few facts about each.

Roma were European Cup runners-up to Liverpool in 1984 and were runners-up in Serie A last season, the 2001 Scudetto winners having undergone a recent revival with manager Luciano Spalletti in charge. He joined the club in 2005.

Last season's title race went to the last day before it was lost to Inter, Roma having already lost talisman Francesco Totti, a prolific scorer in recent years, to a cruciate injury in April. The Italians crashed out of the Champions League against Manchester United in quarter-finals, as they had the seasons before, a notorious 7-1 defeat at Old Trafford wiping out a 2-1 advantage.

Earlier this month Roma, last season's Coppa Italia winners, lost the Italian Super Cup on penalties to José Mourinho's Inter.

In the Giallorossi squad for the coming season is a name written large in recent Chelsea Champions League history - John Arne Riise - a summer acquisition from Liverpool.

Also among their defenders is Christian Panucci who spent a short and unsuccessful loan spell at Stamford Bridge in the 2000/01 season.

Former Arsenal striker Julio Baptista is a summer move from Real Madrid, joining a pool of forwards that contains Vincenzo Montella, back at the club following a loan to Fulham in 2007.

Midfielders Daniele De Rossi, Alberto Aquilani and Simone Perrotta were all part of Italy's Euro 2008 squad. Perrotta was a starter in the 2006 World Cup Final win, De Rossi coming on as a sub for Totti.

Roma play their matches in the 70,000+ capacity Stadio Olimpico (pictured above), the venue for this season's Champions League Final, and also a stadium of fond memories for Chelsea following our record-breaking 4-0 win over Roma's deadly rivals Lazio five years ago.

We have no history with either Bordeaux or their stadium, the Stade Chaban-Delmas which holds approximately 34,000 supporters.

The club where Zinedine Zidane first made his name last won the French league in 1999 and have appeared in the Champions League twice in the last decade, failing to make it out of the group stage on each occasion.

Their greatest European success was as finalists in the 1996 Uefa Cup, when, with the 23-year-old Zidane only playing the second leg, they lost 5-1 on aggregate to Bayern Munich.

At home last season, they finished in second place, four points behind Lyon but have since won a victory over the champions in the French Super Cup, penalties again the decider. Bordeaux, as runners-up, were competing as their opponents had won a domestic double last season.

The side from the Gironde region are currently coached by France legend and former Man United defender Laurent Blanc (pictured with Marcel Desailly).

Bordeaux's principle goal threat is another ex-Fergie signing, David Bellion, and among Blanc's summer acquisitions is Argentina full-back Diego Placente, who helped Bayer Leverkusen to a Champions League final as a team-mate of Michael Ballack.

CFR Cluj is Romania's oldest club and is just two years younger than Chelsea.

They completed a league and cup double last season, their first domestic trophies coming as a prelude to their first Champions League campaign.

It has been a Wimbledon-esque rise as just six years earlier the team from Transylvania were in the third tier of Romanian football league but have benefitted from financial investment.

Their league triumph was a nerve-racking one, decided on the final day and won by a single point over Steaua Bucharest, the gap to second place having been 11 points at the winter break. It was the first time the title had been taken away from the capital city in 17 years.

In preparation for the challenge of European competition, Cluj have been busy scanning the globe for talent and have 27 foreign players on their books, including eight Argentines.

One of the new arrivals, Burkina Faso international Yssouf Koné, played for Rosenborg against Chelsea last season. They also have former Spurs and Leicester keeper Lars Hirschfeld.

Coach Ioan Andone was a defender in all of Romania's Italia 1990 World Cup games before they were knocked out by Ireland on penalties.

Cluj's Dr. Constantin Radulescu Stadium is a 25,000 seater that has undergone recent modernisation and has been passed by Uefa for Champions League ties. It will also host the Romania national side's game against Lithuania next month.

The city of Cluj-Napoca is the third largest in Romania and was the capital of the old province of Transylvania. It also has the honour of being the birthplace of pop duo The Cheeky Girls!
