Draw procedure
- The clubs were split into two pots, with the 12 group winners and the four best third-ranked teams in the UEFA Champions League group stage all seeded.
- The seeded teams are at home in the second legs.
- No team could play a club from their UEFA Europa League group or a side from the same national association.
Due to the city clash between Porto and Braga, one of the two return-leg matches needed to be played on a Wednesday. Porto have priority, having finished in a higher position in their domestic championship, so Braga will play their return leg at home on Wednesday 26 February, at 18:00 CET.
