Tough tasks for Bolton and Aberdeen

12 April 2012

Bolton and Aberdeen must prepare for two of the toughest assignments in the last 32 of the UEFA Cup after being paired with Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich respectively.

But the news was better for Bolton's fellow Premier League sides Everton and Tottenham.

The Toffees will meet Brann Bergen of Norway and Spurs will play Czech side Slavia Prague.

Rangers, who drop down into the competition after finishing third in their Champions League group, have been paired with Greek outfit Panathinaikos.

Juande Ramos' improving Tottenham will be confident of overhauling Czech Republic outfit Slavia Prague, who enter the competition having been eliminated from the Champions League.

Another English club, Everton, will also be favourites to make it past Norwegian champions SK Brann.

Swedish side Helsingborg face a daunting tie against reigning three-time Eredivisie champions PSV Eindhoven, while the clash between Marseille and Spartak Moscow brings together two clubs with realistic hopes of going all the way to the final.
