Group stage
[edit]Draw and format
[edit]The draw of the EHF Cup group stage will take place on Tuesday, 29 November 2016. The 16 teams allocated into four pots will be drawn into four groups of four teams. The country protection rule was applied, i.e. two teams from the same country could not face each other in the same group.
On 3 December 2016, EHF announced the composition of the group phase seeding pots.
Pot 1 | Pot 2 | Pot 3 | Pot 4 |
---|---|---|---|
[[]] | [[]] | [[]] | [[]] |
[[]] | [[]] | [[]] | [[]] |
[[]] | [[]] | [[]] | [[]] |
[[]] | [[]] | [[]] | [[]] |
In each group, teams play against each other in a home-and-away round-robin format. The matchdays are 11–12 February, 17–19 February, 4–5 March, 11–12 March, 25–26 March and 1–2 April 2017.
Tiebreakers
[edit]If two or more teams are equal on points on completion of the group matches, the following criteria are applied to determine the rankings (in descending order):
- number of points in matches of all teams directly involved;
- goal difference in matches of all teams directly involved;
- higher number of plus goals in matches of all teams directly involved;
- goal difference in all matches of the group;
- higher number of plus goals in all matches of the group;
If no ranking can be determined, a decision shall be obtained by drawing lots. Lots shall be drawn by the EHF, if possible in the presence of a responsible of each club.

Ranking of the second-placed teams
[edit]The ranking of the second-placed teams was carried out on the basis of the team's results in the group stage. Because the French side HBC Nantes, the organizers of the Final 4 tournament, finished on top of their group they qualified directly to the final tournament and only the top three second-placed teams qualified to the quarter-finals.

Knockout stage
[edit]Quarter-finals
[edit]Draw and format
[edit]Because the hosts of the Final 4 tournament, HBC Nantes, finished the group stage among the group winners, they have clinched the direct ticket to the final weekend and decided that only three quarter-finals were played for the remaining spots in the final tournament.[5] The draw of the EHF Cup quarter-finals took place on Tuesday 29 March 2016 at the EHF headquarters in Vienna, Austria. Six teams were positioned into two pots. Teams from the same group could not face each other in the quarter-finals.[5] The country protection rule was not applied for the quarter-finals. Therefore, there were two national duels in this round.[6]
In the quarter-finals, teams played against each other on a home-and-away basis, with the teams from second pot playing the first leg at home. The first pot contained the three group winners and the second pot contained the top three second-placed teams.[5]
