A reminder of how this new league phase (which replaces the groups) works:
UEFA website –
“With the new format, teams will play eight matches in the new league phase (formerly group phase). They will no longer face three opponents twice – home and away – but eight different teams, playing half of these matches at home and the other half away.”
Qualifying by ranking:
1st to 8th: qualification for the Round of 8.
9th to 24th: qualification for a two-legged play-off round.
25th to 36th : elimination from all European competitions.
