Format changes

edit

For the 2019–20 season the EHL moved to a new format with the removal of the round-robin tournament in round one.[6] Instead, a knock-out format will be used from the start of the tournament.[6] Round one was replaced by the knockout 16 with four sides advancing to the quarter-finals, or Final 8 as it's called, on Easter.[6] The Final 8 will consist of the champions from the top four nations on the EHL rankings table alongside the four sides that qualified from the knockout 16.[6] This means that instead of a total of 24 teams from 12 associations there were 20 teams from 11 associations.[6]

Knockout 16

edit

The Knockout 16 was held at the Pau Negre Stadium in Barcelona, Spain from 4 to 6 October 2019. The draw took place on 18 July 2019. The four winners from the knockout 8 advance to the Final 8 in April 2020.
