Uefa To Make Champions League Change As Arsenal Clash With Real Madrid

UEFA is likely to make a major rule change ahead of next seasons Champions League.

This season, a 36-team league phase was introduced, in a revamped format.

It saw all the sides ranked in the same group rather than separate ones.

The top eight clubs progressed straight into the last 16, while the next 16 teams faced each other in the play-offs for a spot in the next round.

The current rules stipulate that the teams in the top eight are guaranteed to play the second leg of their last 16 matches at home.
