  • The Champions League league phase wrapped up Wednesday, Jan. 29 as fans enjoyed 18 games kicking off simultaneously across Europe. The field of knockout stage teams was confirmed with 24 teams moving on to the next phase of competition.

The article from MSN Sports discusses the new format for the 2024-25 UEFA Champions League, which will feature a league phase instead of the traditional group stage. This new format will see 36 teams playing in a single league table, with each team playing eight matches against different opponents. The top eight teams will automatically qualify for the knockout stage, while teams ranked from 9th to 24th will enter a playoff round to determine the remaining knockout stage participants. The article also outlines the seeding for the knockout stages, where teams are divided into four pots based on their league phase performance. This change aims to increase competition and provide more matches of high quality, with the final set to be held at the Allianz Arena in Munich on May 31, 2025.
