All clubs eliminated in the qualifying round and play-off round of the Europa League are transferred to the Europa Conference League.

Clubs from the same association will not be drawn into the same group and are paired to play on separate days as much as possible. The groups A-D are assigned a red colour and the groups E-H are blue. When a paired club is drawn into a group the other paired club can only be drawn into a group with another colour. The pairings are as follows: Olympique Lyon & Olympique Marseille, Napoli & Lazio, Bayer Leverkusen & Eintracht Frankfurt, Olympiakos Piraeus & ECL, AS Monaco & ECL, Celtic & Glasgow Rangers, Red Star Belgrade & ECL, Leicester City & West Ham United, Lokomotiv Moscow & Spartak Moscow, Racing Genk & Royal Antwerp, PSV Eindhoven & ECL, Ludogorets & UECL, Real Sociedad & Real Betis, Fenerbahçe & Galatasaray, Rapid Wien & Sturm Graz, and Midtjylland & Brøndby. See UEFA Europa League group stage draw for more info.
A computer draw determines the fixtures such that each club plays one home and one away match against each other club in its group. A club does not play more than two home or two away matches in a row and each club plays one home match and one away match on the first two matchdays and the last two matchdays.
The eight group-winners of the group stage qualify for the round of 16. The eight runners-up of the group stage qualify for the knockout round play-offs of the Europa League. The clubs that finish this stage in third position in their group qualify for the knockout play-offs of the Europa Conference League. The clubs that finish this stage in fourth position in their group are eliminated.
