DRAW PROCEDURE
Based on Article 14 of the UEFA Conference League Regulations the following draw procedure was adopted by the Club Competitions Committee.
Match system
The qualifying phase and play-offs follow the knockout system, whereby each team plays each opponent twice, in home and away matches.
Draw system and conditions
A draw between the same number of seeded and unseeded clubs determines the ties for the qualifying phase and play-offs. Clubs are seeded for these draws in accordance with the club coefficient rankings established at the beginning of the season (see Annex D) and with the principles set by the Club Competitions Committee. If, for any reason, any of the participants in the rounds concerned are not known at the time of the draw, the coefficients of the two clubs involved in the undecided tie are used for the purposes of the draw. For the club advancing to the next round of the competition as winner of the tie, the coefficient of the club with the higher coefficient of the two clubs involved is used for the purposes of the draw. For the other club, which is fed into the relevant round of the competition from another competition, the lower coefficient of the two clubs in the pairing of the other competition is used for the purposes of the draw.
The UEFA administration may form groups for the draw in accordance with the principles set by the Club Competitions Committee. Clubs from the same association cannot be drawn against each other.
A draw is conducted to determine the ties of each match and which team plays the first leg match at home.
In accordance with the relevant decisions of the UEFA Executive Committee, teams from the following associations may not be drawn against each other:
Armenia โ Azerbaijan
Gibraltar โ Spain
Kosovo โ Bosnia-Herzegovina
Kosovo โ Serbia
Kosovo โ Russia*
Ukraine โ Russia*
Ukraine โ Belarus
*All teams from Russia are suspended until further notice by the decision of the Executive Committee of 28 February 2022, and as confirmed by the Court of Arbitration for Sport on 15 July 2022.
Draw system (Champions Path)
The ten teams (four pairings from the champions path of the UEFA Conference League third qualifying round ties, indicated for the purposes of this draw as Winners of Pairing 1 to 4; and the six pairings coming from the UEFA Europa League third qualifying round champions path, indicated for the purposes of this draw as Pairing 1 to 6) were divided equally into five seeded and five unseeded pairings.
As the teams qualifying from the third qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League were not known at the time of the draw, the coefficient of the team with the higher coefficient of the two teams involved in each undecided UEFA Conference League third qualifying round tie was used for the seeding for the purposes of the draw. Therefore, if a team in a UEFA Conference League third qualifying round tie has a coefficient that would entitle it to be seeded for the UEFA Conference League play-offs qualifying round draw, the winner of that tie was automatically seeded for the draw.
Furthermore, as the teams entering the competition from the third qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League (champions path) were not known at the time of the draw, the coefficient of the team with the lower coefficient of the two teams involved in each undecided UEFA Europa League third qualifying round tie was used for the seeding for the purposes of the draw.

Pairing 5: FK Panevฤลพys (LTU) / Maccabi Tel-Aviv FC (ISR)
Pairing 6: UE Santa Coloma (AND) / FC RFS (LVA)
Draw procedure (Champions Path)
Three bowls were prepared for the draw, with the balls containing the names of the seeded and unseeded pairings placed in the corresponding marked bowls.
One ball was then taken from each of these bowls and placed in the third empty central bowl, where they were shuffled.
The first pairing then drawn from this bowl was considered the home team for the first leg of the first tie, which they play against the second pairing drawn.
The process was then repeated with the remaining balls to complete all the ties.
Due to the above-mentioned Executive Committee decision concerning teams from Bosnia-Herzegovina and Kosovo, in the event that the balls containing the pairing of FC Ballkani (vs Larne FC) (i.e. Winner of Pairing 4) and the pairing involving FK Borac Banja Luka (vs Kร Klaksvรญk) (i.e. Pairing 2) were drawn against each other, the second team drawn into the tie would be moved to be the away first leg visiting team of the next pairing tie. One ball would then be drawn directly from the appropriate bowl to complete the initial tie with a different away first leg visiting team.
Following that, one ball would then be drawn directly from the other relevant bowl to complete the subsequent tie by allocating a first leg home team.
If the balls containing the pairings involving FC Ballkani and FK Borac Banja Luka were the last two remaining in the draw, the one pairing drawn as the first leg visiting team in the second-to-last pairing would instead be moved to the position of the first leg visiting team in the last pairing. The last remaining ball in the relevant bowl would then be drawn to complete the second-to-last pairing as the first leg visiting team. The last final remaining ball would then be drawn as the first leg home team in the last pairing.
Draw system (Main Path)
The 38 teams (five that enter the competition at this stage; 26 pairings coming from the third qualifying round of the UEFA Europa Conference League main path; and seven pairings coming from the UEFA Europa League third qualifying round main path) were divided into three groups of ten teams and/or pairings (Group 1 to 3) and one group of eight teams and/or pairings (Group 4), with an equal number of seeded and unseeded teams and/or pairings in each group.
As the teams qualifying from the third qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League were not known at the time of the draw, the coefficient of the team with the higher coefficient of the two teams involved in each undecided UEFA Conference League third qualifying round tie was used for the seeding for the purposes of the draw. Therefore, if a team in a UEFA Conference League third qualifying round tie has a coefficient that would entitle it to be seeded for the UEFA Conference League play-offs draw, the winner of that tie was automatically seeded for the draw.
