How does the EL league phase work?published at 12:04 British Summer Time 30 August
Teams who finish in the top eight will qualify automatically for the last 16, while those who place ninth to 24th will compete in a two-legged knockout play-off for the chance to join them.
From the last 16 onwards, the Europa League will continue to follow its existing format.
Each team will play a minimum of eight - instead of six - matches.
The league phase will now run until the end of January instead of ending before Christmas.
How does the draw work?published at 11:59 British Summer Time 30 August
You may have heard it's all change this season in terms of how the draw works.
There are 36 teams involved in the league phase. They will discover which eight clubs they will meet (four at home and four away) - but no actual groups will be drawn.
All the teams will be in one 36-team league phase, as compared to the past format of eight four-team groups.
So how will the draw work?
Teams will be placed in four pots according to their seeding. Each team face two teams from each pot, one at home and one away.
A team will be drawn out of a pot and then Uefa's software will decide their eight opponents - and whether they will be at home or away. It means more matches between the biggest teams.
The software stops teams playing rivals from their own country - and means each team can only play two clubs from any one country.
Uefa says the computer system plans ahead so will ensure no teams further down the line get drawn against teams they cannot face.
