Ties are decided over two legs, with the second legs being played at the teams’ homes.

Recall that since the so-called away goals rule was eliminated, ties that remain tied after 180 minutes will proceed to extra time regardless of how many goals each side has scored at home and on the road.

After a further 30 minutes, if the teams are still tied, a penalty shootout will be used to decide the winner.

The first legs will take place on February 16 and the second legs will follow a week later on February 23.

The draw for the round of 16 is scheduled for February 24.

The winners of the eight matches will play alongside the eight Europa League group winners.

Losers are eliminated from the 2022–2023 European competition.
