DrawThis is the comprehensive explanation of UEFA's seeding system and draw procedure. Country rankingEvery country receives two points for every victory of its team and
one point for draw. Cups' qualification matches are counted half and
bonus points are awarded for participation in Champions' League group
stage and quarter-finals, semi-finals and final of all cups. The country
coefficient for one year is the sum of all earned points in that year
divided by number of participating clubs. The sum of five consecutive
year coefficients gives value for country rank. This value will
be used for club ranking in next season and for determination of number
of participating clubs in season after next. Club rankingClub coefficient is the sum of half country coefficent and points earned
in cup by that club (including bonus points, but without points from
qualifications). The sum of five consecutive year coefficents gives
value for club rank. This value will be used for seeding in next
season. Draw procedureSeeding in Champions' League 2002/2003 Seeding in UEFA Cup 2002/2003 |
