2024–25 EHF Champions League group stage
The 2024–25 EHF Champions League group stage is played between 11 September 2024 and 6 March 2025 to determine the twelve teams advancing to the knockout stage of the 2024–25 EHF Champions League.
Draw
[edit]The draw was held on 27 June 2024 in Vienna, Austria.[1][2]
Seeding
[edit]The composition of the seeding pots for the group stage draw was announced on 26 June 2024. From Pot 1, three teams will be drawn into Group A and the other three teams in Group B. From Pot 2, each team from the same national association (Germany, Poland, France, Denmark and Hungary) were drawn in opposite groups. Groups A and B were completed by either two or three teams from Pot 3.[3]
Format
[edit]In each group, teams will play against each other in a double round-robin format, with home and away matches.
Tiebreakers
[edit]In the group stage, teams are ranked according to points (2 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). After completion of the group stage, if two or more teams have the same number of points, the ranking will be determined as follows:
- Highest number of points in matches between the teams directly involved;
- Superior goal difference in matches between the teams directly involved;
- Highest number of goals scored in matches between the teams directly involved;
- Superior goal difference in all matches of the group;
- Highest number of plus goals in all matches of the group;
If the ranking of one of these teams is determined, the above criteria are consecutively followed until the ranking of all teams is determined. If no ranking can be determined, a decision shall be obtained by EHF through drawing of lots.
Groups
[edit]The matchdays are 11–12 September, 17–18 September, 25–26 September, 9–10 October, 16–17 October, 23–24 October, 30–31 October, 20–21 November, 27–28 November, 4–5 December 2024, 12–13 February, 19–20 February, 26–27 February and 5–6 March 2025.[4]
