Teams occupying a play-off spot have one final chance to join the 29 teams, including defending champions Real Madrid, who are already through to the new 36-team league phase format of the competition.

The 70th season of Europe's elite club competition, and the 33rd since it was renamed the UEFA Champions League, this is the first under the new format. It kicks off on 9 July 2024 with the qualifiers, and runs until the final on Saturday May 31, 2025 at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany.
