El sorteo de la fase liga de la UEFA Champions League de esta temporada tendrá lugar en Mónaco este jueves a las 18:00 horas y seguirá exactamente el mismo procedimiento que el año pasado. Los grupos y los bombos como tal han desaparecido y será el software (en cuestión de segundos) el encargado de repartir rivales, dos de cada nivel o grupo repartidos en virtud del ránking de los equipos.
Por delante, ocho partidos para disputar una Liga virtual en la que los ocho primeros se clasificarán para octavos de final y los ocho últimos quedarán eliminados. Todos los resultados influyen en la clasificación final y un gol de un equipo podría ser decisivo para la clasificación de uno u otro club.
Al filo de las siete de la tarde de este jueves se conocerán los partidos que se juegan en cada jornada y qué equipo lo hace en casa y fuera, aunque el reparto de los choques en el calendario no se dará a conocer hasta la mañana del sábado. Las televisiones mandan y exigen un reparto de espacios de algunos equipos complicados de cuadrar y más con seis clubes ingleses y cinco españoles.
MARCA te explica todos los detalles que necesitas conocer de la ‘nueva’ Champions League
Así quedan los bombos de la Champions 25-26
Bombo 1:PSG, Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern, Liverpool, Inter, Chelsea, Dortmund y Barcelona.
Bombo 2:Arsenal, Leverkusen, Atlético de Madrid, Benfica, Brujas, Atalanta, Villarreal, Juventus y Eintracht.
Bombo 3:Tottenham, PSV, Ajax, Nápoles, Sporting, Olympiacos, Slavia de Praga, Marsella y Bodo/Glimt.
Bombo 4:Mónaco, Qarabag, Galatasaray, Union SG, Pafos, Kairat Almaty, Athletic, Newcastle y Copenhague.
¿Cómo es el sorteo?
El sorteo comenzará por el Bombo uno, se extraerá una bola física antes de que el software automatizado, ya utilizado el año pasado, seleccione aleatoriamente ocho rivales teniendo en cuenta los siguientes principios: dos equipos de cada uno de los cuatro bombos, con un partido en casa y otro fuera, contra equipos de cada bombo asignados por el software.
Los cabezas de serie están en el bombo 1 con el campeón de la última Champions incluido, el PSG. A la hora de conocer los rivales y dónde se juega si en casa o fuera todo lo decidirá la tecnología.
En un principio no se enfrentarán conjuntos de la misma federación, pero la actual Champions sí lo contempla si así se llega a necesitar en algún momento, pero nunca habría más de dos equipos de la misma federación.
La novedad de esta temporada es que el sorteo de la fase liga de la UEFA Europa League y la UEFA Conference League se combinará por primera vez en un programa especial el viernes por la mañana, retransmitido en directo desde el Grimaldi Forum de Mónaco, lo que optimizará el contenido y maximizará el impacto de ambos sorteos.
José Félix Díaz explica la principal novedad respecto a la pasada temporda.
En el Polo y cerca de China
La Champions 25-26 echará de menos, una campaña más, al United, pero disfrutará de equipos como el noruego Bodo, situado en una ciudad al norte del círculo polar ártico, o el Kairat Almaty, equipo kazajo, radicado a 300 kilómetros de China y con 7.000 kilómetros de viaje desde España. El Kairat se ha convertido en el conjunto situado más al este en disputar la fase final de la Copa de Europa, superando al Astana. Dubái (4.300 kilómetros) o Kabul (4.700) están más cerca del corazón de Europa que la propia Almaty.
A este festival de kilómetros se une el Qarabag de Azerbayán y de triste recuerdo para el Atlético con los dos empates que cosechó en la fase de grupos de la temporada 2017-18. El cupo de lo exótico lo completa el Pafos chipriota, con apenas once años de historia y que es dirigido por el español Carcedo y que ha sido capaz de eliminar al Estrella Roja.
Procedimiento del sorteo
El sorteo comenzará por el Bombo 1, se extraerá una bola física antes de que el software automatizado, ya utilizado el año pasado, seleccione aleatoriamente ocho rivales teniendo en cuenta los siguientes principios:
– Dos equipos de cada uno de los cuatro bombos, con un partido en casa y otro fuera contra equipos de cada bombo asignados por el software
– No se enfrentarán equipos de la misma federación
– No más de dos oponentes de la misma federación
Se repetirá el mismo procedimiento para todos los demás equipos hasta que se hayan sorteado todos los emparejamientos.
El calendario completo de la UEFA Champions League con las fechas de los partidos se comunicará a más tardar el sábado 30 de agosto.

Data-backed NFL Bets: A top-down approach to beating the market in Week 1
Many NFL bettors start by looking at individual markets — like spreads, totals, teasers or props — and ask, “Which spread looks good?” or “What totals stand out this week?” This is a bottom-up approach, where you focus on specific bets first. In this space, we’ll take a different approach. We’ll focus on one game each week and use a top-down strategy to break it down. This means starting with the bigger picture — how teams, players or trends are performing — and then finding the best ways to apply that information to different betting markets. While some of our bets may focus on traditional markets, like spreads or totals, we’ll often explore other opportunities to maximize value. Atlanta Falcons (-5.5) +230 on Fan Duel Week 1 presents a natural opportunity for tails. With change comes uncertainty, and with uncertainty comes […]
NFL Week 1: PrizePicks Selections
With the college football season officially in full swing, it’s time for the NFL to take center stage, as all 32 teams will open their season over the next few days. Week 1 can be tricky when it comes to betting picks because of the uncertainties that lie within rosters; for example, determining how many snaps a rookie wide receiver will play or how quickly free-agent acquisitions will adjust to a new scheme can be difficult to predict. Each week, we will analyze some of the best player statistics on Prize Picks with the help of our new PFF Player Props Tool. Betting insights, matchup data and historical hit rates are just a few of the things the tool has to offer. Here are two props that stand out ahead of Week 1 of the 2025 NFL season. WR Malik […]
