The New Champions League Format
League Phase
UEFA announced that the Champions League will expand from 32 to 36 teams this season. Unlike previous formats, teams will not be drawn into groups but will instead form a single league. Each team will play eight games (four home and four away) against opponents determined by a draw. The top 8 teams will qualify directly for the Round of 16, while teams placed 9th to 16th will enter the Play-offs for the Round of 16.
Knockout Phase
The Knockout Phase begins after the League Phase:
Play-offs for the Round of 16: Teams placed 9th–16th will face teams placed 17th–24th. (Note: This stage involves two-legged ties, home and away.)
Round of 16: The top eight teams from the League Phase and the winners of the Play-offs will compete.
Quarter-finals, Semi-finals, and Final: Matches will follow a pre-determined draw.
Teams finishing 25th to 36th in the League Phase will be eliminated from the competition; there is no relegation to the Europa League.
