2024/25 Champions League draw: Every team’s fixtures, including Liverpool, Arsenal & Aston Villa

CJ

The draw for the revamped 2024/25 Champions League ‘League Phase’ has been made, with the likes of Real Madrid, Liverpool and Bayern Munich learning their fate.

This season’s competition will look rather different than in years past, with the group stage scrapped in favour of one 36-team League Phase.

With every team now playing two extra group matches, this phase of the tournament will also stretch into the new year.

Read on for every team’s Champions League fixtures, as well as what’s in store with the new format.

New Champions League format

As mentioned, the Champions League has been revamped this season. Instead of the traditional 32 teams split into eight groups of four, there’s now a single 36-team table, referred to as the ‘league phase’.

Teams will no longer play three opponents twice. Instead, each club will face eight different teams, with four home matches and four away.

To make the draw, teams were sorted into four seeding pots, and each club was drawn to play two opponents from each pot, with one game per pot at home and the other away.

The top eight teams from this league phase will automatically advance to the last 16, while teams ranked ninth to 24th will compete in a two-legged playoff round for the remaining spots.

Teams finishing 25th or lower will be eliminated from European competition entirely, rather than moving to the Europa League as has happened in previous seasons for teams finishing third in the group stage.

From the last-16 onward, the knockout rounds will proceed as normal.
