3 COEFFICIENT RANKINGS A coefficient ranking list has been established, taking account of teams results in the qualifying round only (win = 3 points, draw = 1 point, defeat = 0 points). Associations with the same coefficient have been separated using the following criteria in the order given: 1. better goal difference; 2. higher number of goals scored; 3. lower number of disciplinary points based only on yellow and red cards received in the qualifying round matches (red card = 3 points, yellow card = 1 point, expulsion for two yellow cards in one match = 3 points); 4. higher position in the coefficient ranking list used for the qualifying round draw; 5. drawing of lots. DRAW PROCEDURE The 24 associations will be drawn into 6 groups of 4 teams: Pot A (green balls) Associations ranked from 1 to 6 Pot B (blue balls) Associations ranked from 7 to 12 Pot C (yellow balls) Associations ranked from 13 to 18 Pot D (red balls) Associations ranked from 19 to 24 The draw will start with Pot D and end with Pot A. Each pot will be emptied before moving to the next pot. First draw phase The teams in Pot D will be drawn one after another and placed in the fourth position in Groups 1 to 6. Second draw phase The teams in Pot C will be drawn one after another and each one placed in the third position in one of the six groups. Third draw phase The teams in Pot B will be drawn one after another and each one placed in the second position in one of the six groups.

4 For both competitions, the teams will be allocated to groups in numerical order in such a way as to ensure that no winners and runners-up from the same qualifying group meet each other in the elite round. If clashes arise, the team drawn will be moved to the next available group. The draw continues by first filling the slot left vacant. If clashes arise in the last three or four groups, the teams will be allocated to groups appropriately.
