New UEFA Champions League Rules Explained


UEFA had overhauled the Champions League format last year, replacing the traditional group stage with a single league phase.


Instead of 32 teams in eight groups, the competition now features 36 clubs in one expanded table. Each team plays eight different opponents, four at home and four away, based on seeding, giving fans a wider variety of matchups.


After these league games, the top eight teams automatically qualify for the Round of 16.


Teams ranked 9th to 24th enter a two-leg playoff to claim the remaining spots. From the Round of 16 onward, the tournament follows the familiar knockout format leading to the final.
