The draw of the EHF Cup group phase was carried out on Thursday 6 December 2012 in Belgrade, Serbia. The teams were positioned into four pots, with the country protection rule applied: two clubs from the same country may not face each other in the same group.{{cite news | url = http://europeancup.eurohandball.com/ehfc/men/2012-13/article/16061/Belgrade+hosts+Men%E2%80%99s+EHF+Cup+Group+Phase+draw+on+Thursday | title = Belgrade hosts Men's EHF Cup Group Phase draw on Thursday | publisher = European Handball Federation official website | date = 5 December 2012 | access-date = 11 February 2013 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20160304050447/http://europeancup.eurohandball.com/ehfc/men/2012-13/article/16061/Belgrade+hosts+Men%E2%80%99s+EHF+Cup+Group+Phase+draw+on+Thursday | archive-date = 4 March 2016 | url-status = dead }} As is standard in EHF club competitions, the seeding is calculated on the basis of the three most recent seasons.{{cite news | url = http://ebook.eurohandball.com/2012-regulations-EHFCUPM/EHFCUPM/General%20Information_Playing%20system%20and%20Seeding.pdf | title = Men's EHF Cup from the season 2012/13 | publisher = European Handball Federation official website | date = 4 May 2012 | access-date = 11 February 2013}} Consequently, the results of the seasons 2011–12, 2010–11 and 2009–10 was considered to determine the seeding of the teams for the 2012–13 season. As there was the EHF Cup as well as the EHF Cup Winners' Cup parallel in these last three seasons, the results of both competitions of these seasons were added and then divided by two in order to get the points for the seeding for the 2012–13 season.

The group stage features 16 teams, which were allocated four groups of four. In each group, teams play against each other home-and-away in a round-robin format. The matchdays are 9–10 February, 16–17 February, 23–24 February, 9–10 March, 16–17 March, and 23–24 March 2013. The top two teams from each group qualify for the quarter-finals, which are scheduled in April 2013.{{cite news | url = http://europeancup.eurohandball.com/ehfc/men/2012-13/article/16065/VIDEO%3A+EHF+Cup+Group+Phase+draw+made+in+Belgrade | title = EHF Cup Group Phase draw made in Belgrade | publisher = European Handball Federation official website | date = 6 December 2012 | access-date = 11 February 2013 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20131023061550/http://europeancup.eurohandball.com/ehfc/men/2012-13/article/16065/VIDEO%3A+EHF+Cup+Group+Phase+draw+made+in+Belgrade | archive-date = 23 October 2013 | url-status = dead }}

If Nantes, as the organiser of the Final 4 tournament, win their group or finish among top three second ranked teams, they will receive a direct qualification to the Final 4 tournament. In that case only four group winners and two best second ranked team will qualify for the quarter-finals. If the French side wins their group then the other three group winners and the three best second ranked team will qualify for the quarter-finals. If Nantes finish among the top three second ranked teams, the quarter-finals will consist of four group winners and two best second ranked teams. If Nantes finish as the worst second ranked team, they will have to play the quarter-final match. Should the French club rank on the third or fourth position in their group, they will be out of the competition, but they will still organize the Final 4 tournament.

If two or more teams are equal on points on completion of the group matches, the following criteria are applied to determine the rankings (in descending order):{{cite news | url = http://ebook.eurohandball.com/2012-regulations-EHFCUPM/EHFCUPM/2012_13Regulations270812DRAFT.pdf | title = Regulations | page=21 | publisher = European Handball Federation official website | access-date = 11 February 2013}}

1. number of points in matches of all teams directly involved;
2. goal difference in matches of all teams directly involved;
3. greater number of plus goals in matches of all teams directly involved;
4. goal difference in all matches of the group;
5. greater number of plus goals in all matches of the group;

If no ranking can be determined, a decision shall be obtained by drawing lots. Lots shall be drawn by the EHF, if possible in the presence of a responsible of each club.

Because the hosts of the Final 4 tournament, Nantes, finished the group stage among the top three second-placed teams, they have clinched the direct ticket to the final weekend and decided that only three quarter-finals will be played for the remaining spots in the final tournament.{{cite web|url=http://europeancup.eurohandball.com/men/2012-13/article/16590/Seeding+for+the+Men%27s+EHF+Cup+Quarter-finals+draw+confirmed|title=Seeding for the Men's EHF Cup Quarter-finals draw confirmed|date=24 March 2013|access-date=26 March 2013|publisher=EHF official website|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130430234322/http://europeancup.eurohandball.com/men/2012-13/article/16590/Seeding+for+the+Men%27s+EHF+Cup+Quarter-finals+draw+confirmed|archive-date=30 April 2013|url-status=dead}} The draw of the EHF Cup quarter-finals was carried out on Tuesday 26 March 2013 at the EHF headquarters in Vienna, Austria. Six teams were positioned into two pots with the country protection rule not applied: two clubs from the same country could face each other in the quarter-finals. However, teams from the same group of the group phase cannot face each other. The first pot contained the four group winners and the second pot contained the top two second-placed teams. In the quarter-finals, teams will play against each other over two legs on a home-and-away basis, the team drawn first will play the first leg on the home court.
