Group stage
[edit]The 16 teams were allocated into four pots, with the title holders, Benfica, being placed in Pot 1 automatically. The other 3 seeded teams, Barcelona, Forte dei Marmi and Liceo, were automatically placed in groups B, C and D, respectively.[1] They were drawn into four groups of four, with the restriction that teams from the same association could not be drawn against each other.
In each group, teams played against each other home-and-away in a home-and-away round-robin format.
A total of 5 national associations were represented in the group stage. Sporting CP made its debut appearance in the group stage.
The group winners and runners-up advanced to the quarter-finals.[2]
