Vipers Kristiansand defended their title after a finals win over Győri Audi ETO KC.[1]
The competition began with a group stage featuring 16 teams divided in two groups. Matches were played in a double round-robin system with home-and-away fixtures. In Groups A and B, the top two teams qualified for the quarterfinals, with teams ranked third to sixth entering the playoffs.
The knockout stage included four rounds: the round of 16, quarterfinals, and a final-four tournament comprising two semifinals and the final. The teams were paired against each other in two-legged home-and-away matches, with the aggregate winners qualifying to the next round.
In the final four tournament, the semifinals and the final were played as single matches at a pre-selected host venue.
A total of 21 teams from 15 countries submitted their application for a place in the competition's group stage before the deadline of 21 June 2021.[2][3] The final list of 16 participants was revealed by the EHF Executive Committee on 29 June 2021.[4]
