Format In each group, teams played against each other in a double round-robin format, with home and away matches.
Tiebreakers In the group stage, teams were ranked according to points (2 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). After completion of the group stage, if two or more teams had the same number of points, the ranking was determined as follows:
Highest number of points in matches between the teams directly involved; Superior goal difference in matches between the teams directly involved; Highest number of goals scored in matches between the teams directly involved; Superior goal difference in all matches of the group; Highest number of plus goals in all matches of the group; If the ranking of one of these teams was determined, the above criteria was consecutively followed until the ranking of all teams is determined. If no ranking could be determined, a decision would be obtained by EHF through drawing of lots.
