After the end of the League Phase, the Champions League will restart with the direct-elimination phase, carried out as usual with home and away legs. The top eight have directly advanced to the last-16 (Liverpool, Barcelona, Arsenal, Inter, Atletico, Bayer Leverkusen, Lille and Aston Villa), while the teams between 9th and 24th position will participate in a play-off round. The tournament will continue with a tennis-style bracket: the teams finishing between ninth and 16th will be seeded in the first round of elimination and will face a team who finished between 17th and 24th position. The seeded team, in line with the rules, will play the second leg at home. The final ranking positions will determine the possible matches in the direct elimination phase according to a pre-determined pattern. For example, the teams that finished in ninth and tenth place will face the teams who finished in 23rd or 24th place and the teams who finish in eleventh or twelfth place will be drawn against the teams in 21st or 22nd place and so on. This was the outcome of the knockout phase play-off draw that took place on Friday in Nyon:

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE PLAY-OFFS First leg 11-12 March, second leg 18-19 March Celtic vs. Bayern Munich Monaco vs. Benfica Brest vs. PSG Club Brugge vs. Atalanta Sporting CP vs. Borussia Dortmund Feyenoord vs. AC Milan Juventus vs. PSV Manchester City vs. Real Madrid The winners of these ties will qualify for the last 16 of the competition, where they will face one of the top eight sides from the League Phase.

Once the eight play-off winning teams have been confirmed, the final draw to determine the final composition of the tournament until the final will take place on Friday 21 February. The procedure will follow the same rules as the draw for the knockout ties: the teams will face each other based off of the pre-determined pattern based off the final positions in the standings of the League Phase.

Having finished fourth, Inter will face either the winner of AC Milan vs. Feyenoord or the winner of Juventus vs. PSV. It is yet to be determined which tie will be paired with Inter and which tie will be paired with Arsenal (who finished third). Only after the play-offs will Inter (and Arsenal) discover their opponents.

Inter will play their round of 16 tie on 4-5 March (first leg) and 11-12 March (second leg at home).
