The 2010–11 UEFA Champions League will be the 56th edition of the European Club Championship football tournament and the second edition under the latest qualifying format. The final venue will be Wembley Stadium in London, England.[1]

Association team allocation

A total of 76 teams will participate in the 2010–11 Champions League, from 52 UEFA associations (Liechtenstein organizes no domestic league competition). Countries are allocated places according to their UEFA league co-efficient.

The Champions League title holder from the 2009–10 season will be guaranteed a place in the group stage, even if they do not obtain a qualifying place through their domestic league.

The allocation system may change slightly depending on the title holder's domestic placing.

TH Title Holder

The Title-Holder

The winner of the 2009-10 Champions League is guaranteed an entry into the group stage of the 2010-11 competition. The default team allocation system is constructed under the assumption that the Title Holder has not already qualified for the Champions League by other means and does not come from an association which has the maximum 4 Champions League places. However, this is frequently not the case. The allocation of teams across the qualification rounds may have to be adjusted accordingly.

The 2009-10 Champions League is currently at the semi-final stage. Given the remaining teams' nationalities and current positions in their domestic leagues, there are three possibilities concerning the use of the Title Holder spot in the 2010-11 season:

The Title Holder does not qualify for the Champions League domestically and comes from an association with 3 or fewer Champions League entries
The Title Holder is entered into the group stage, and no changes to the allocation of teams is necessary.
The Title Holder also qualifies for the Best-placed team Play-off round
The Title Holder club is entered directly into the group stage,
To compensate:
Russia Zenit St. Petersburg and Ukraine Runners-up of 2009–10 Ukrainian Premier League are entered into the Best-placed team Play-off round
The Title Holder already qualifies for the group stage through their domestic league placing
The Title Holder club remains in the group stage.
To compensate:
Scotland Champions of 2009–10 Scottish Premier League are entered into the group stage,
Denmark Champions of 2009–10 Danish Superliga are entered into the third qualifying round for champions,
Faroe Islands HB Tórshavn and Luxembourg Champions of 2009–10 Luxembourg National Division are entered into the second qualifying round

All draws held at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland unless stated otherwise.

The 2009–10 UEFA Champions League was the 55th season of Europe's premier club football tournament and the 18th under the current UEFA Champions League format. Barcelona are the defending champions. CSKA Moscow being the first Russian team to win the European Cup after defeating Bayern Munich by 4–2 at the final on 22 May 2010, at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, home ground of Real Madrid, in Madrid, Spain.[1] This year's final will be the first to be played on a Saturday night, and the matches from the round of 16 will be spread over four weeks instead of two. The winner of the tournament qualifies to play in the 2010 FIFA Club World Cup as well as the 2010 UEFA Super Cup.

Association team allocation

A total of 76 teams will participate in the 2009–10 Champions League, from 52 UEFA associations (Liechtenstein organizes no domestic league competition). Countries are allocated places according to the 2008 UEFA league coefficient.[2] The UEFA ranking determines the number of teams competing in the season after the next, not in the first season after the publication of the ranking. Thus, the allocation in 2009–10 is determined by the 2008 ranking, not 2009.

Since the previous season's winners, Barcelona, obtained a place in the group stage through their domestic league placing, the reserved defending champion spot was not used. To compensate, the champion of association 13 (Belgium) were promoted from the third qualifying round to the group stage, the champion of association 16 (Switzerland) were promoted from the second qualifying round to the third qualifying round, and the champions of associations 48 and 49 (Faroe Islands and Luxembourg) were promoted from the first qualifying round to the second qualifying round.[3]

Below is the qualification scheme for the 2009–10 UEFA Champions League:

  • Associations 1–3 each have four teams qualify
  • Associations 4–6 each have three teams qualify
  • Associations 7–15 each have two teams qualify

Qualifying phase

In a new system for the Champions League, there are two separate qualifying tournaments.[4] The Champions Path (which start from the first qualifying round) is for clubs which won their domestic league and did not automatically qualify for the group stage, while the Non-Champions Path (which start from the third qualifying round) is for clubs which did not win their domestic league and did not automatically qualify for the group stage.

In the qualifying phase and the play-off round, teams play against each other over two legs on a home-and-away basis.

The draw for the first and second qualifying rounds, conducted by UEFA President Michel Platini and UEFA General Secretary David Taylor, was held on 22 June 2009, and the draw for the third qualifying round, conducted by UEFA Competitions Director Giorgio Marchetti and Head of Club Competitions Michael Heselschwerdt, was held on 17 July 2009. For the draws, clubs were separated into seeded and unseeded teams based on their club coefficient. Because the draws for the second and third qualifying rounds took place before the previous round was completed, the teams were seeded assuming the seeded side in the previous round would be victorious.

First qualifying round

The first legs were played on 30 June and 1 July, while the second legs were played on 7 July and 8 July 2009.

Notes
  • Note 1: Sant Julià was originally drawn to play the first leg at home, but the tie was reversed and Tre Fiori hosted the first leg instead.

Second qualifying round

The first legs were played on 14 July and 15 July, while the second legs were played on 21 July and 22 July 2009.

Partizan's 8–0 win over Rhyl in the second leg tied the record for the largest margin of victory in the current Champions League format.

The second leg between Stabæk and Tirana is currently under investigation by UEFA and German authorities for possible match-fixing.[5]

Group stage

The draw for the group stage was held at the Grimaldi Forum in Monaco on 27 August 2009. A total of 32 teams were drawn into eight groups of four. Teams were divided into four pots, based on their club coefficient. Clubs from the same pot or the same association cannot be drawn into the same group.

In each group, teams played against each other home-and-away. The matchdays were 15–16 September, 29–30 September, 20–21 October, 3–4 November, 24–25 November, and 8–9 December 2009. The top two in each group advanced to the knockout phase, and the third-placed teams entered the round of 32 of the 2009–10 UEFA Europa League.

AZ, Wolfsburg, Standard Liège, Zürich, APOEL, Rubin Kazan, Unirea Urziceni and Debrecen made their debut in the group stage.

Tie-breaking criteria

Based on Article 7.05 in the UEFA regulations, if two or more teams are equal on points on completion of the group matches, the following criteria will be applied to determine the rankings:[6]

  1. higher number of points obtained in the group matches played among the teams in question;
  2. superior goal difference from the group matches played among the teams in question;
  3. higher number of goals scored away from home in the group matches played among the teams in question;
  4. superior goal difference from all group matches played;
  5. higher number of goals scored;
  6. higher number of coefficient points accumulated by the club in question, as well as its association, over the previous five seasons.

Knockout phase

In the knockout phase, teams play against each other over two legs on a home-and-away basis, except for the one-match final.

The draw for the round of 16 was held on 18 December 2009, conducted by UEFA General Secretary Gianni Infantino and Giorgio Marchetti, the UEFA Director of Competitions.[7] The eight group winners, which would play the second leg at home, were drawn against the eight group runners-up, with the restriction that teams from the same group or the same association cannot be drawn with each other.

The draws for the quarter-finals, semi-finals and final (to determine the "home" team) was held on 19 March 2010, conducted by Gianni Infantino and Emilio Butragueño, the ambassador for the final in Madrid.[8] From the quarter-finals onwards, there were no seedings, and teams from the same group or the same association may be drawn with each other.
