2024/ 25 Europa Conference League: Chelsea's group stage opponents confirmed

Chelsea Football Club will be looking to become the first team that will win all the UEFA club competitions in history as they compete in the Europa Conference League.

The Blues booked their spot in the competition for the first time despite suffering a shock 2-1 defeat by Servette in Switzerland on Thursday, August 29, 2024, advancing through the play-off round 3-2 on aggregate having won the first leg 2-0 at Stamford Bridge a week ago.

Just like the UEFA Champions League and the Europa League, the normal group stage has also been replaced by a new 36-team league phase, in the draw of the Europa Conference League it is six pots of six, with each club playing six matches in total against one opponent from each pot three at home and three away.

The top eight finishers will advance through to the last 16, with the clubs that place ninth to 24th facing a play-off round next year (2025) while the remaining teams will be automatically knocked out from the Europa Conference League.
