AZ, who saw off Astra in the play-offs, were also handed a tough looking group and will meet Spanish side Athletic Bilbao, Augsburg of Germany and Serbian side Partizan Belgrade.
Groningen, who are embarking on their first ever European adventure will come up against French giants Marseille, Portuguese side Braga and Slovan Liberec of the Czech Republic.
