The 2024–25 EHF Champions League group stage will be 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
editThe draw was held on 27 June 2024 in Vienna, Austria.[1][2]
Seeding
editThe 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
editIn each group, teams will play against each other in a double round-robin format, with home and away matches.
Tiebreakers
editIn 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.
