New Champion League format will adopt for next season make one team will play eight matches in phase round but there are not home and away match but become the league format, recently teams finished as top eight position automatically will qualify to 16 of round and while the teams finishing in 9th to 24th place will face with home and away format to get 8 ticket left for knock out round. Seems not really interested with new format because Champion League will adopt as league format as usually in domestic league, seems easily for any team reach the top six standings place get qualify to direct knock out round.
New format of Champion League will place 36 teams participants than usually has 32 participants separated on 8 groups, but next season not any group phase any more after UEFA change with league competition format.
The new format of the Champions League certainly makes us curious about whether the Champions League is getting more exciting or actually experiencing a decline in competition in the competition next season, the new format of the Champions League next season adopts the Swiss model which is indeed more dominant use in the game of chess so far, I don't know what the reason for UEFA is changing the format of the competition in the current Champions League but I hope that with the change in the format it will make the competition in the Champions League will the more competitive and not only profitable for he big team later, the new format will be officially used next season and hopefully it will make the Champions League even more interesting to watch.
According to several sources on goggle, the decision to change the format of the Champions League next season is controversial in various parties because it is likely to favor some big teams, including giving two slots to teams that do not qualify for the Champions League through any route but have the highest ranking value based on the UEFA coefficient, so it seems controversial,because UEFA is directly become accomplice of the big clubs.
