Format
In the group stage, each group was played on a home-and-away round-robin basis. The teams were ranked according to the following criteria: 1. Points (2 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, and 0 points for a loss); 2. Goal difference

If two teams from the same national association tie on points, the above criteria would not apply and their final positions would be determined in an extra match to be played at a venue within their own country that was decided by drawing of lots. Winners of this match qualified for the seminfinals; in the event of a draw, the team with the best goal difference in the group would have qualified.

The winners of each group advanced to the semi-finals.
