Round 3 Draw Sets the Stage for EHF European Cup Men 2025/26 Battles in November
The field of 32 clubs in the EHF European Cup Men 2025/26 is now set for action in round 3 this November. Following a draw ceremony held on Tuesday at the European Handball House in Vienna, the 16 matchups were determined — shaping the path for teams hoping to continue their journey after the winter break.
After an eventful round 2 concluded over the weekend, the qualified teams quickly discovered their next opponents and potential routes toward EHF European Cup glory. The 32 sides were split into two pots, with each team from pot 1 drawn against a team from pot 2; the first team drawn will host the opening leg. There was no country protection, yet coincidentally no domestic clashes occurred.
The first-leg matches are scheduled for 15/16 November, with the return legs to follow on 22/23 November.
