Women's Champions League quarter-finals and knockout phase play-offs: Who has qualified?

The four teams progressing automatically to the quarter-finals and the eight contesting the knockout phase play-offs have been confirmed, following the conclusion of the 2025/26 UEFA Women's Champions League league phase.

Atleti and OH Leuven have joined Barcelona, OL Lyonnes, Chelsea, Bayern München, Arsenal, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus, Wolfsburg and Paris FC in confirming their places in the knockout phase.

The draw to set the knockout bracket will be held at 13:00 CET on Thursday 18 December.

This is the first Women's Champions League season under the new league phase format. The top four sides in the league phase qualify automatically for the quarter-finals, while the teams finishing in fifth to 12th place will compete in a two-legged knockout phase play-off to secure their path to the last eight. Teams ranked 13 to 18 have been eliminated.

Standings are provisional until all league phase matches have been played and officially validated by UEFA. Confirmations of qualification / elimination are based on the provisional standings and are therefore for guidance purposes only until all league phase matches are completed and final standings have been validated by UEFA.
