UEL draw: Sunderland, Bournemouth drawn against AC Milan

Sunderland and Bournemouth have both been drawn against AC Milan in the Europa League's league phase. Sunderland, who have not competed in European competition since 1973, will travel to Milan's San Siro stadium. Bournemouth, on the other hand, will host the Italian giants at home. The Cherries will face Spanish side Real Sociedad among their eight league-phase opponents.

Crystal Palace, who have not entered the Europa League since being demoted last July for ownership rule violations, have arguably been handed the toughest draw of the three Premier League clubs, facing Lyon, Real Sociedad, and Besiktas in their eight fixtures.
