UEFA Explains Tie-Breaker Rules for New Champions League Format
UEFA has clarified how teams tied on points will be ranked in the new 36-team Champions League league phase. This season, the traditional group stage is replaced with a league format where each team plays eight matches. The top eight teams automatically qualify for the Round of 16, while teams ranked 9th to 24th will compete in play-offs. Teams finishing 25th to 36th are eliminated.
To separate teams tied on points, UEFA will use criteria such as goal difference, goals scored, and away wins. If these don’t resolve ties, teams will be ranked alphabetically by their abbreviated names. This system ensures transparency as fans anticipate the competition’s new format.
