Sticking with an unchanged playing system, the group phase for both the Machineseeker EHF Champions League and the EHF Champions League Women will again feature two eight-team groups for the 2024/25 season. While the two best-ranked teams from each group advance to the quarter-finals directly, the teams ranked between third and sixth meet each other in the play-offs for the remaining spots in the quarter-finals.
So, who are the teams that will share a group when the new season throws off in September? The draw for the group phase of both competitions takes place in Vienna on Thursday 27 June at 17:30 CEST - click here for the draw procedure. Here is how to follow all that happens.
