UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Draw Live Updates: The new season will feature a new format. The 36 teams will be divided into four pots of nine teams each.
The UEFA Europa League 2024-25 group stage draw is set to take place in Monaco on Friday, August 30, at 4:30 PM IST.
The total number of teams participating in the Europa League 2024-25 season has increased from 32 to 36.
Notable teams like Tottenham, Manchester United, Real Sociedad, Athletic Club, Roma, Lazio, Eintracht Frankfurt, Hoffenheim, Lyon, Nice, Fenerbahçe, AZ, FC Twente, Union Saint-Gilloise, Rangers, and Porto will be part of the draw on Thursday.
The 2023-24 UEFA Conference League winners, Olympiacos, have earned an automatic entry into the Europa League draw.
Due to a format change for the 2024-25 UEFA Europa League, this draw will be conducted differently.
The 36 teams will be divided into four pots of nine teams each based on their UEFA coefficients. The draw will determine each team's eight league phase opponents, with an AI-generated software deciding the fixtures.

Champions League Draw 2024-25 Live: The 2024/25 UEFA Champions League draw is currently taking place on August 29, Thursday in Monaco.

Featuring top European clubs such as Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Arsenal, Inter Milan, the format will see the 36 teams will be divided into four pots of nine teams each. Every side will be playing two teams from each pot, one at home and one away.
Spanish giants, Real Madrid will walk into the new season as the defending champions having bested German club Borussia Dortmund 2-0 in last year’s final at the Wembley Stadium.

36 teams, long first stage, a legal threat, how and why Champions League draw would be different this season
The Champions League expands from 32 to 36 teams this season, forcing inevitable structural tweaks. The group stage ceases to exist, and instead teams tussle in a partial reproduction of the Swiss model often seen in chess tournaments. Understandably, there is excitement as well as cynicism, besides a threat of legal sanctions by Chilean sports consultant Leandro Shara for the “unauthorised and unfair use” of the format. The draw ceremony, from Thursday night in Monaco, would set the ball rolling for the season of intrigue, and potentially mouthwatering encounters.
The format has been used in football before, most notably in the CONCACAF Nations League qualifying competition. The 36 teams will be divided into four pots of nine teams with each side playing two teams from each pot, one at home and one away. The top eight clubs qualify directly to the Round of 16. The teams ranked ninth to 24th will have to take part in play-off matches, from where eight teams join the top eight. The clubs that are ranked 17th to 24th after the play-off stages will be eliminated from all European competitions, which means there will be no place for them in the Europa League as well as the Conference League. From there on, it will revert to its familiar format.
Aleksander Ceferin has said he'd love to see Cristiano Ronaldo back in the Champions League: "I have a problem with Cristiano Ronaldo as well, because unfortunately he doesn't play in the best competition any more. But we hope that he will come back some day."
"In football you never know what will happen... never say never," says Ronaldo in reply.
"For me it's a pleasure to be here and thank you for this amazing award. It means a lot to me," he added. "The pleasure to play in the Champions League, it's our motivation. When you hear the music, you turn on. It's difficult to pick one memory, but the first one [with Manchester United] was a special one. Of course I have to mention Real Madrid, because I won it four times there, all the stories we had there. 2014 in Lisbon in front of Portuguese fans was quite special."
