Qualifying Rules for the 2022 Champions League Group Stage

The 55 members of UEFA are divided into four grades according to the ranking coefficient. For example, "national leagues" are grouped according to FIFA's ranking of national teams. Then, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Italy may become the first-class teams in the national league, and England, Portugal, Greece, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Russia may become the second-class teams.

After the double round robin in the group stage, the last three files were promoted and the first three files were relegated to the bottom. The top four teams in the A file will enter the final championship battle, and the final stage will be held in June next year. The results of this UEFA are not directly related to the qualification of Qatar 2022 finals in the 2022 FIFA World Cup, but related to the qualification of the World Cup qualifiers.

In the preliminaries, the European 10 team will be directly finalists, while the second 10 team will be divided into three "semi-finals" with two teams qualified for the Europa League, and the final three European qualifying places will be decided by a single game.
