Champions League table: League phase latest standings for 2024-25 season
[ad_1]
A fresh era for the Champions League is underway with the launch of the new ‘League Phase’, which replaces the old group stage this season.
Each team will face eight different opponents, with four matches played at home and four away – two more than under the previous format.
In total there are 36 teams in one big league. The top eight will all qualify automatically for the knockout stages, while the teams finishing in 9th to 24th place will face a two-legged play-off tie in the New Year to secure a last-16 spot. Teams that finish 25th or lower will be eliminated from European competition entirely, with no route down into the Europa League.
