Format: seeding, conditioning factors and how it works
Who are seeded and what advantages do they have?
The winners of the group stage of the Europa League will be seeded in this draw and, therefore, they can’t fight each other. What’s more, they will play the second leg at home. These teams are: Red Star, Eintracht Frankfurt, Galatasaray, Leverkusen, Lyon, Monaco, Spartak Moscow and West Ham.
Conditions and who cannot face
In this round, teams from the same federation cannot meet. That is to say, there cannot be crosses with two clubs from the same country. This will change in the next draw, the quarterfinals and semifinals, where there will be no seeding or limitations by country when it comes to establishing the pairings.
