The UEFA Champions League will undergo significant changes next season, featuring a 36-team format with matches against eight different opponents. The new format aims to freshen up the group stage and introduce a seeding table akin to tennis for the knockout stage. The revamp is seen as a response to the Super League controversy, with experts discussing the implications and benefits of the new club competition formats.
