How the draw worked

Champions path

• The draw involved 20 teams: five direct entrants and the 15 winners of the first qualifying round ties played on 5/6 and 12/13 July.
• The teams were divided equally between seeded and unseeded clubs in accordance with the club coefficient rankings. For the first qualifying round pairings, the coefficient of the club with the higher coefficient of the two clubs involved in an undecided tie was used for the purposes of the draw.
• UEFA formed three groups for the champions path draw in accordance with the principles set by the Club Competitions Committee: two groups that produced three ties each (Groups 1 and 2) and one with four ties (Group 3).
• The balls containing the names of the seeded teams/pairings were placed in one bowl and the balls containing the unseeded teams/pairings were put into another bowl. One ball was taken from each bowl and placed in a large empty bowl in the middle, where they were shuffled. The first team/pairing drawn will play the first leg at home.
