2008–09 UEFA Champions League group stage
The 2008–09 UEFA Champions League group stage matches took place between 16 September and 10 December 2008.
Seeding structure
editSeeding was determined by the UEFA coefficients:[1] Pot 1 held teams ranked 1–10 (since Milan and Sevilla did not qualify), Pot 2 held teams ranked 11–23, Pot 3 held teams ranked 25–45, while Pot 4 held teams ranked 46–193 and unranked teams.
Clubs from the same association were paired up to split the matchdays between Tuesday and Wednesday. Clubs with the same pairing letter played on different days, ensuring that teams from the same city (e.g. Milan and Internazionale, who also share a stadium) did not play on the same day.[2]
Group winners and runners-up advanced to the round of 16 |
Third-placed teams entered the UEFA Cup at the round of 32 |
