How will the 2024/25 Draw Work?
All 36 qualified clubs will be seeded in four pots based on their individual club coefficient at the beginning of the season. Each team will then be drawn against two clubs from each other's pot, including their own pot, one to play at home and the other away. Teams cannot be drawn against other clubs from the same country. The draw will be conducted manually using physical balls. A designated automated software will randomly draw the opponents for each team, and this will be revealed on screen in the draw hall and on television. The software will also decide which matches will be played at home and which will be played away. The draw will start with Pot 1, assigning opponents to all teams one by one, and then move on to the other pots in descending order until all teams have been assigned their opponents.
