How does the draw work?

The 12 group winners, plus the four best third-placed teams from the Champions League, go into the draw as seeded teams. The runners-up and remaining Champions League sides are the unseeded teams.

Seeded teams are drawn against unseeded sides with the first leg at the home of the unseeded teams, before a second leg at the home stadium of the seeded side a week later.

Teams from the same group or same country cannot be drawn together for the round of 32, meaning Rangers and Celtic or any Premier League club can’t be drawn together. However, Celtic or Rangers could be drawn against the Premier League clubs.

When are the last-32 ties?

  • 20 February: Round of 32, first leg
  • 27 February: Round of 32, second leg
  • 28 February: Round of 16 draw, Nyon
