FC BARCELONA NEWS Cover for Thursday, August 28, 2025: After coming close to the final last season and falling short against Inter, FC Barcelona will try their luck again in the group stage draw, which will be held this Thursday, August 28 at 6:00 p.m. at the Grimaldi Forum in Monaco.
The new format gives no respite: clubs ranked between 9th and 24th place after the league stage must compete in a play-off to secure a spot in the round of 16. Only the top 16 will have direct passage. From 25th to 36th, they won't even be able to say goodbye: they will be out without the right to reply. For a Barça that wants to lead in Europe again, the group stage is no longer a formality, but the first assault of a battle with no margin for error.
