Champions League fixtures for 2025/2026 season confirmed [Full Fixtures]

Champions league

The league phase draw for the 2025/2026 Champions League was held on Thursday.

This year’s competition will continue to use the ‘Swiss-style’ league phase rather than the group stage to which fans are used.

This implies that 36 teams will once again compete in the competition.

Then the top eight sides will then qualify automatically for the knockout stages, while the teams that finish in ninth to 24th place will be drawn in a two-legged play-off to secure a place in the last 16 of the competition.

Teams ranked 25-36 are eliminated from all competitions.

Here are some of the fixtures:

Bayern Munich will face Chelsea (H), PSG (A), Club Brugge (H), Arsenal (A), Sporting CP (H), PSV (A), Union SG (H), Pafos (A)
