*Participation subject to ongoing CAS proceedings
**Following the upholding by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) of the decision of the UEFA Appeals Body to declare Skёnderbeu ineligible for the 2016/17 UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Emergency Panel met and decided that Skёnderbeu will be replaced in the competition by Partizani, runners-up of the 2015/16 Albanian domestic league. Partizani thereby transferred from the UEFA Europa League.
