HOW THE DRAW WORKED

Seedings

Ahead of the draw, the 16 teams were divided equally between seeded and unseeded clubs in accordance with the club coefficient rankings.

• For each group, two pots were prepared, one for the seeded teams and the other for the unseeded teams.
• For each group, the balls containing the names of the seeded teams were placed in one bowl and the balls containing the names of the unseeded teams 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 club drawn first plays the single leg of the tie at home if no fixture reversals apply.
• The same procedure was carried out with the remaining balls to complete all the pairings of the first group and then repeated to determine the pairings for the second group.
