Chelsea will face Switzerland's Servette in the Europa Conference League playoffs four days after their Premier League opener as the Swiss side failed to advance past Braga in their Europa League third qualifying round return leg on Thursday.
The tie was goalless following the first leg in Portugal before Braga beat Servette 2-1 at the Stade de Geneve to qualify for the main stage of the competition.
Servette, meanwhile, dropped into the Conference League playoff round and will face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Aug. 22 in the first leg, with the second leg held in Switzerland a week later.
Servette, who last season reached the Conference League last 16, won the Swiss Cup in June, their first major trophy in 23 years.
In some of the other playoff ties, Serie A's Fiorentina will face Hungary's Puskas Akademia and Spanish side Real Betis will play Ukraine's Kryvbas.
