Here we go again. The battle for Ol’ Big Ears starts again in earnest with this draw. Normally this would be for the group stage, but this is a new world. We’re just now sure if we like it (yet).

This is a high-stakes experiment from Uefa, implemented initially for the 2024-27 Champions League cycle. The old group stage has been replaced by a single 36-strong league table with each team playing eight matches against eight different opponents, four at home and four away. It is known as a “Swiss model” and will shake down into a top eight, who qualify directly to the knockout stage, with 16 sides contesting a playoff round. The teams finishing between 25th and 36th will be eliminated when the league phase concludes in January. The knockouts will look familiar, a round of 16 funnelling towards a May final, this time in Munich, and they will be bracketed so the clubs can plot their potential path.

A new “hybrid concept” will replace the old-fashioned method that was based purely on picking balls from bowls. Each team will be drawn out by hand before software designed by AE Live, a technology solutions provider that works with a range of major sports institutions, selects their eight opponents. No club can play another team from their own domestic league or play more than two games against sides from a particular country. Supporters with their fingers poised on Skyscanner can ease off: the fixture list, including the order in which matches are played, will not be published until Saturday.

The draw will take place at 5pm BST and is expected to last for around an hour! How exactly it will do that, I have no idea!
