Where can I watch the draw for the LDC play-offs?
You’ll be able to watch the event on TV, of course, but you can also stream it free of charge on the UEFA website. In print, we’ll be publishing the draw with live updates.
How does the draw work ?
The rankings count, as the 9th and 10th play the 23rd or 24th, then the 11th and 12th face the 21st or 22nd. This is determined by the draw, and there is no other limit. Clubs from the same country can play each other, as can those who have already played each other in the league phase. Normally, the “top seed” will play the return leg at home.
Will the draw also take place for the 8th, quarter and semi-finals ?
No, only the play-offs, which take place on January 31. The rest of the draw will take place on February 21.
