The 2025–26 UEFA Champions League knockout phase began on 17 February with the knockout phase play-offs and will end on 30 May 2026 with the final at the Puskás Aréna in Budapest, Hungary, to decide the champions of the 2025–26 UEFA Champions League.[1] A total of 24 teams will compete in the knockout phase, with 16 entering in the play-offs and 8 receiving a bye to the round of 16.[2]

Times are CET/CEST,[note 1] as listed by UEFA (local times, if different, are in parentheses).

Format

Each tie in the knockout phase, apart from the final, is played over two legs, with each team playing one leg at home. The team that scores more goals on aggregate over the two legs advances to the next round. If the aggregate score is level, then 30 minutes of extra time is played (the away goals rule is not applied). If the score is still level at the end of extra time, the winners are decided by a penalty shoot-out. In the final, which is played as a single match, if the score is level at the end of normal time, extra time is played, followed by a penalty shoot-out if the score is still level.[2]

Draw procedure

In the knockout phase, there is no country protection, with teams from the same association able to face each other in any round. Teams can also face opponents they played during the league phase.

The mechanism of the draws for each round were as follows:[2]

  • In the draw for the knockout phase play-offs, the eight teams finishing the league phase in positions 9–16 were seeded, and the eight teams finishing the league phase in positions 17–24 were unseeded. The draw was split into four sections based on the predetermined bracket, with the seeded teams in each section drawn against one of their two possible unseeded opponents. The seeded teams hosted the second leg.
  • In the draw for the round of 16, the eight teams finishing the league phase in positions 1–8 were seeded, and the eight winners of the knockout phase play-offs were unseeded. Again, the draw was split into four sections based on the predetermined bracket, with the seeded teams in each section drawn against one of their two possible unseeded opponents. The seeded teams hosted the second leg.

In the quarter-finals and semi-finals, both the exact match pairings and order of legs were predetermined based on the tournament bracket. The higher-seeded teams, assuming they advance, will play the second leg of each round at home. Should a seeded team be beaten, the team that eliminates them will assume their seeding position. The winner of semi-final 1 will be designated as the "home" team for the final (for administrative purposes as it is played at a neutral venue).

In the knockout phase, teams from the same or nearby cities are not scheduled to play at home on the same day or on consecutive days, due to logistics and crowd control.[2]: Art. 24.02  To avoid such scheduling conflict, several adjustments have been made: for the knockout phase play-offs and the round of 16, if the two teams are drawn to play at home for the same leg, the home match of the team that had the lower league phase ranking will be moved from either Tuesday or Wednesday from a regularly scheduled time to an earlier time slot, to a different day, and/or at an alternative venue without clashing any other competition. For the quarter-finals and semi-finals, the order of legs of the tie involving the team with the lowest priority will be reversed from the original draw.[3]

Predetermined pairings

The bracket structure for the knockout phase was partially fixed in advance using seeding, with a symmetrical pattern on both sides.[2] Teams' positions in the bracket were determined by their final standings in the league phase, ensuring that higher-ranked teams face lower-ranked opponents in earlier rounds. As a result, certain sets of teams, such as the top two from the league phase, cannot meet until the final.

The structure of each side of the bracket can be summarised as follows, with the exact pairings of the play-offs and round of 16 determined by a draw:[note 2]

  • Knockout phase play-offs
    • Pairing I: 9/10 vs 23/24
    • Pairing II: 11/12 vs 21/22
    • Pairing III: 13/14 vs 19/20
    • Pairing IV: 15/16 vs 17/18
  • Round of 16
    • Pairing A: 1/2 vs Winner IV
    • Pairing B: 3/4 vs Winner III
    • Pairing C: 5/6 vs Winner II
    • Pairing D: 7/8 vs Winner I
  • Quarter-finals
    • Pairing 1: Winner A vs Winner D
    • Pairing 2: Winner B vs Winner C
  • Semi-finals: Winner 1 vs Winner 2

Knockout phase play-offs

The draw for the knockout phase play-offs was held on 30 January 2026, 12:00 CET.[4]

Seeding

The draw was split into four seeded and four unseeded pots, based on the predetermined pairings for the knockout phase. Teams were allocated based on their final position in the league phase. Teams in positions 9 to 16 were seeded (playing the second legs at home), while teams in positions 17 to 24 were unseeded. The draw began with the unseeded teams, allocating them all to a tie. Once completed, all the seeded teams were drawn into a tie as their opponents.[5]

Notes

  1. ^ CET (UTC+1) for dates up to 28 March 2026 (knockout phase play-offs and round of 16), and CEST (UTC+2) for dates thereafter (quarter-finals, semi-finals and final).
  2. ^ The draws determine the exact play-off and round of 16 pairings for each side of the bracket, which mirror each other. For example, if the team in 9th is drawn against 23rd in the play-offs, the team in 10th will be drawn against 24th on the other side of the bracket.
  3. ^ The Borussia Dortmund v Atalanta match, originally scheduled for 21:00, was delayed to 21:15 due to late team arrival caused by heavy traffic.[19]
