The 2013–14 UEFA Champions League is the 59th season of Europe's premier club football tournament organised by UEFA, and the 22nd season since it was renamed from the European Champion Clubs' Cup to the UEFA Champions League.
The 2014 UEFA Champions League Final will be played at the Estádio da Luz in Lisbon, Portugal.[1] Bayern Munich are the defending champions.
For the first time, the teams who qualify for the group stage will also qualify for the newly formed 2013–14 UEFA Youth League, a competition available to players aged 19 or under.
Association team allocation
A total of 76 teams from 52 of the 54 UEFA member associations participate in the 2013–14 UEFA Champions League (the exceptions being Liechtenstein, which do not organise a domestic league, and Gibraltar, which should start participating in the 2014–15 season after being admitted as a UEFA member in May 2013).[2][3] The association ranking based on the UEFA country coefficients is used to determine the number of participating teams for each association:[4]
- Associations 1–3 each have four teams qualify.
- Associations 4–6 each have three teams qualify.
- Associations 7–15 each have two teams qualify.
- Associations 16–53 (except Liechtenstein) each have one team qualify.
The winners of the 2012–13 UEFA Champions League are given an additional entry as title holders if they do not qualify for the 2013–14 UEFA Champions League through their domestic league (because of the restriction that no association can have more than four teams playing in the Champions League, if the title holders are from the top three associations and finish outside the top four in their domestic league, the title holders' entry comes at the expense of the fourth-placed team of their association). However, this additional entry is not necessary for this season since the title holders qualified for the tournament through their domestic league.
Association ranking
For the 2013–14 UEFA Champions League, the associations are allocated places according to their 2012 UEFA country coefficients, which takes into account their performance in European competitions from 2007–08 to 2011–12.[5][6]

Distribution
Since the title holders (Bayern Munich) qualified for the Champions League group stage through their domestic league, the group stage spot reserved for the title holders is vacated, and the following changes to the default allocation system are made:[7][8]
- The champions of association 13 (Denmark) are promoted from the third qualifying round to the group stage.
- The champions of association 16 (Cyprus) are promoted from the second qualifying round to the third qualifying round.
- The champions of associations 48 (Northern Ireland) and 49 (Luxembourg) are promoted from the first qualifying round to the second qualifying round.

- Notes
- ^ Turkey (TUR): On 25 June 2013, Fenerbahçe were banned by UEFA from the 2013–14 UEFA club competitions due to previous match fixing.[11][12] They appealed the ban to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, and on 18 July 2013 it was ruled that the ban should be temporarily lifted and they should be included in the qualifying round draws of the Champions League, until the final decision to be made before the end of August 2013.[13][14][15] Fenerbahçe competed in the Champions League qualifying rounds and lost in the play-off round. On 28 August 2013, the Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld UEFA's ban, meaning Fenerbahce were banned from the 2013–14 UEFA Europa League.[16][17]
- ^ Ukraine (UKR): On 14 August 2013, Metalist Kharkiv were disqualified from the 2013–14 UEFA club competitions due to previous match-fixing.[18] UEFA decided to replace Metalist Kharkiv in the Champions League play-off round with PAOK, who were eliminated by Metalist Kharkiv in the third qualifying round.[19] Metalist Kharkiv made two urgent requests to the Court of Arbitration for Sport for temporary reinstatement until a final decision is reached, but both requests were rejected.[20][21][22][23][24][25] On 28 August 2013, the Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld UEFA's ban.[16][17]
