The exciting round 2 just finished over the weekend, and the clubs that advanced didn't have to wait long to find out where their next step towards EHF European Cup glory leads them.
The 32 participants had been seeded into two pots prior to the draw. Each team from pot 1 was paired with a team from pot 2, with the team drawn first getting the right to play the first leg at home. No country protection rule applied, but no teams from the same country have been drawn against each other. Due to a technical issue, the draw could not be streamed live as planned.
The first leg of round 3 is scheduled for the weekend of 15/16 November, the all-decisive second leg for 22/23 November.
