Get your tickets now!How the league phase in the UEFA Europa League worksA league format has replaced the group stage in UEFA competitions for the past few years. In the UEFA Europa League, just like in the Champions League, each team is drawn against eight different opponents, playing four home and four away matches.
At the end of the eight rounds, an overall table is formed for all 36 participating teams. The top eight teams then advance directly to the round of 16. Teams finishing 9th to 24th compete in a play-off round with home and away legs for the remaining knockout stage spots.
Further changes compared to the previous format: after elimination, there is no longer any relegation to the UEFA Conference League, as was previously the case for third-placed teams in the group stage. Additionally, the league now runs until the end of January.
