The record for most goals in a single group stage/league phase week of the UEFA Champions League came back in the 2000/01 edition of the world's ultimate club competition, under the old format of two group stages. We have come close to breaking that several times since then, though.
All statistics are for group stage (six matchdays) games between 1992/93–2023/24 (not including second group stage in 1999/2000–2002/03 seasons), and league phase (eight matchdays) games from 2024/25 onwards.
What is the highest-scoring Champions League matchday?
2000/01 Matchday 1 (63 goals, 16 games)
2020/21 Matchday 3 (62 goals, 16 games)
2022/23 Matchday 5 (59 goals, 16 games)
2021/22 Matchday 3 (59 goals, 16 games)

How the record-breaking week in 2000/01 unfolded
This season produced a record 449 goals, though there were 157 matches under the old format of two group stages. The 386 goals struck in 2020/21 came in just 119 fixtures, setting a Champions League record average of 3.24 per game.
