How did the draw work?
To determine the eight different opponents, teams were seeded in four pots based on their individual club coefficient at the beginning of the season. Each team was then drawn against two opponents from each pot, one of which they will play at home and one away.
In the league phase, teams cannot face opponents from the same association and could be drawn against a maximum of two sides from the same country.
Where is the 2027 Europa League final?
Draws are provisional and subject to the outcome of ongoing investigations and/or legal proceedings and final confirmation by UEFA.
