When is the Europa League draw"

The draw for this year’s Europa League takes place on Friday, August 30, 2024, at 12 pm UK time.

However, the fixture list will be formalised and released a day later, on August 31.
How does it work"

As opposed to a group stage followed by knockout games in previous years, the Europa League will now be one big league made up of 36 teams, with 16 clubs making it to the knockout rounds.

Each team will be drawn against eight opponents for the league stage, with a combination of home and away matches being played through to the end of January.

The top eight teams in the league will automatically qualify for the last 16, while teams placed 9th to 24th will take part in a play-off to determine who advances to the knockout stage.
