The 18 clubs were divided into three pots of six clubs. The pots were composed according to the club coefficient rankings established at the beginning of the season and with the Women's Champions League titleholder (Barcelona) being the top seed in pot 1. Arsenal and Chelsea were also in pot 1, whilst WSL champions Manchester City were in pot 3.
The opponents of each team, as well as whether each match is played at home or away, was determined by means of a draw. Each team was drawn against two opponents from each of the three pots and will play one opponent from each pot at home, and the other away.
Teams from the same association could not be drawn against each other and each team was only able to play against a maximum of two opponents from any other one association.
