The Champions League qualifiers (excluding the preliminaries) and the Champions League play-offs are mainly two rounds of away games. The second round of preliminaries, the third round of preliminaries and the play-offs are divided into "the way to win the championship" and "the way to the league".
A total of 32 teams participated in the group competition, which was divided into 8 groups with 4 teams in each group. The top two players in the group stage entered the knockout stage, and the third player participated in the European League knockout play-offs. 1/8 finals, 1/4 finals, semi-finals are mainly two rounds away. The finals were held in a neutral venue, and there were no three or four competitions. If the two sides draw at the end of the 90-minute regular time, they will enter 30-minute overtime, and if the overtime is still undecided, they will enter a penalty shootout.
