Champions League qualification rounds have begun, with 29 teams already qualified, including six from England. Teams are competing for seven additional spots in the league phase. Teams face opponents in the league stage across eight fixtures, divided into pots based on their recent UEFA performances, except for holders PSG, who are in Pot 1. Rules prohibit teams from the same country facing each other and limit the number of teams from one nation that can be drawn together.
The Champions League qualification rounds are underway with relative minnows and comparative giants battling it out for a spot in the league phase of Europe's premium club competition.
Twenty-nine teams have already booked their place in this season's edition, including six from England, due to Premier League clubs' performance against the UEFA co-efficient.
In the league stage, the 36 qualified teams each contest eight fixtures, four home and four away, against a range of teams from Pot 1 to Pot 4.
Each team faces two opponents from each of the four pots, although they cannot play teams from the same country and cannot be drawn against more than two teams from the same nation.
