The current name/format were not introduced to the competition until 1992, despite originally running from 1955 under the name of The European Cup. At the start of the season the valid teams are given a seed and are automatically put into the main draw, but other teams have to go through a qualifying period to see if they will also be in the competition. Once all teams are in the main draw they are drawn into 8 groups of 4 teams where they will play each other twice, both home and away and then the top two teams from every group go through to the last 16.

These teams are then drawn into 8 fixtures where they will again play both home and away with the overall winners of each tie progressing through to the ¼ finals, the same procedure then continues right through to the final where there will only be one match and will be played a neutral venue at one of Europe’s top football stadiums. 21 different teams have won the competition since its launch in 1955 and 12 of those teams have won it on more than one occasion, Real Madrid being the most successful team winning the prestigious trophy no less than 9 times!.
