AcademyNew format and key dates - Liverpool set for UEFA Youth League return
The Reds’ senior side’s qualification for the Champions League means the club will also be involved in the equivalent tournament for the U19s age group.
Split between a Champions League path and a domestic champions path, Liverpool will be part of the former – which now follows the main competition in the form of a 36-team league stage.
U19s fixtures in this phase will mirror those at senior level, though only for the first six matchdays of the eight in the senior tournament, with each club playing three games at home and three away.
Opponents will be revealed when the draw takes place on August 29.
Youth League fixture dates for the Reds will be: September 17/18/19; October 1/2; October 22/23; November 5/6; November 26/27; December 10/11.
After those six matches, the top 22 teams in the league stage will progress to the knockout phase, where they will be joined by 10 qualifiers from the domestic champions path.
The knockout stage will then consist of one-legged ties, beginning in mid-February.
