2005–06 UEFA Champions League group stage

The 2005–06 UEFA Champions League group stage matches took place between 13 September and 7 December 2005.

Seeding structure

The 32 teams were divided into four pots.[1] Seeding was determined by the UEFA coefficients.[2] Clubs from the same association were paired up to split the matchdays between Tuesday and Wednesday. Clubs with the same pairing letter would play on different days, ensuring that teams from the same city (e.g. Milan and Internazionale, who also share a stadium) did not play on the same day.

Group winners and runners-up advanced to the first knockout round
Third-placed teams entered the UEFA Cup at the round of 32
