DRAW PREVIEW: 32 teams will learn their opponents on Tuesday
Following the completion of the European Cup Women Round 2 last weekend all is set for the draw of the next stage. Nine winners have joined 23 teams which were seeded directly for the third round as the draw at the EHF Office in Vienna will determine all the pairings on Tuesday at 11:00 CEST.
The joint event with the draw of the European League Women Qualification Round 3 will be streamed live on the Home of Handball Facebook and YouTube page.
Zones applied
The EHF decided to stick to a zone system for the pots which is helping to reduce potential risks and restrictions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. However, there will be no country protection, hence the clubs from the same national federation can face each other.
First leg matches are scheduled for 14-15 November and the second leg will follow one week later.
