How to watch the Champions League in the US: Full schedule, channels, live TV for the period 2021-2022
The UEFA Champions League group stage will only have 16 teams left with the dream of lifting the trophy on May 28, 2022 in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
The competition has only two legs remaining in the group stage, which will cut the fields of 32 teams in half before the knockout round will include a two-leg series, home and home.
In the knockout stage starting in February 2022, the club that scores the most goals in two matches will advance to the next round. And in a new twist, away goals won’t be the deciding factor starting in the 2021-22 European season. The UEFA Champions League Final will be a single match played at a neutral venue.
