The 2021-2022 UEFA Champions League group stage is nearing its conclusion as the competition marches on to the final on May 28, 2022 in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
Only half of the field of 32 teams will survive the group stage. The top two teams in each group (A through H) will advance to the Round of 16 in February. The third-place teams receive a consolation prize: passage to the Europa League knockout round playoff, where they will face Europa League group runners-up.
If you’re familiar with international soccer, you know how the group stage works: Each team faces the other three teams at home and on the road for a total of six group matches. Each match is a chance to pick up points (three for a win, one for a draw and none for a loss).
Round of 16 Draw: Date, teams, seeds & how it works
The teams are ranked within their group based on their points total. If two or more teams are even on points, the first tiebreakers are: (1) points in matches among tied teams, (2) goal difference in matches among tied teams, and (3) goals scored in matches among tied teams. The complete list of tiebreakers follows below.
The group standings and schedule below is updated throughout the tournament (X = qualified to knockouts, E = eliminated from knockout round contention). A total of 11 berths have beenclinched to the Round of 16 with five more still up for grabs heading into the final matchday.
PTS=Points, GP=Games Played, W=Wins, L=Losses, D=Draws, GF=Goals For (scored), GA=Goals Against (conceded), GD=Goal Difference (between goals scored and conceded)
