Not feel time is rolling so fast. It seems like only yesterday night Liverpool won the Champions League. Uh, suddenly it's going to be drawing Champions League group for this season.


Third party references
Quoted from Marca (21/08), drawing is scheduled for August 29, 2019 in Monaco local time. 4 pots that will produce 8 groups, are ready to present the intense competition in this round.

4 pots containing 32 participating clubs. A total of 26 clubs have sealed their tickets. While 6 other clubs are still struggling in the play-off phase, including Ajax Amsterdam.

Interestingly, this time the defending champion is predicted to compete in the hell group. Liverpool who are definitely in pot 1, are predicted to meet between Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid in this phase.


Third party references
Pot 1: contains Champions League champions (Liverpool) and Europa League champions (Chelsea), as well as 6 champions clubs in the European Top league.

Pot 2: Contains 8 clubs which have the highest coefficient in Europe. Including Ajax if it passes the play-offs.


Pot 3 and 4: also determined by their coefficient ranking among the European Top leagues.

So, as the saying goes from the school exam bench, position determines achievement. Which top club will be lucky to meet easy opponents in the group phase? And will Liverpool really be in the hell group?
