UEFA Champions League Structure and Stages
Unlike traditional leagues like Italy Serie A or knockout competitions like national cups, the Champions League moves through several stages. Each has its own specific Champions League odds and is influenced by multiple factors – a team’s Champions League standings, history of knockout performance, etc. Primary stages include:
Qualifications. This preliminary competition is held over the summer before each season fully begins. 52 teams that didn’t qualify directly to the Champions League compete over four rounds to determine seven sides to join the league stage.
League stage. 29 Clubs from UEFA high-ranking leagues, like Real Madrid, Man City, Barcelona, or Bayern, qualify automatically; seven remaining teams advance through qualifiers. Previously known as a group stage, this format is relatively new. Introduced to European football only in 2024, the League stage puts each of 36 participating teams against 8 bracketed opponents. The result of this stage is determined by points: the 8 best teams advance directly to the knockout stage, and the remaining 8 places are decided in play-offs between sides placed 9-24.
Knockout stage. 16 remaining teams play two matches against each other – one home and one away. The team with the best total result advances. This adds a new UEFA Champions League betting option – a bet “to advance”. The stages go as follows: Round of 16, quarter-final, semi-final, and then the final.
Unlike matches in the Knockout stage, the final has only a single leg, and it’s played in an arena announced beforehand. The Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid will host the 2026/2027 final.
Every single stage, from qualifiers up to the final, is available on VivatBet – open the match, explore the odds, make a bet and try your chances! See the list of options, with only a few among the many prediction markets available on the platform.

Pre-Match Odds for Champions League
Pre-match Champions League odds on our sportsbook are set in advance, but they reflect every change and shift happening before the game. They update live and reflect factors such as a team’s condition, status, head-to-head results, injuries, etc. The lower the odds, the more likely the sportsbook sees that outcome. Odds also determine a stake’s payout. Sign up, pick a match, find the right odds, and place your bet today! VivatBet is a sportsbook with an EMTA license, so it’s safe to explore and enjoy.
