Format

Each tie in the knockout phase, apart from the final, was played over two legs, with each team playing one leg at home. The team that scored more goals on aggregate over the two legs advanced to the next round. If the aggregate score was level, then 30 minutes of extra time was played (the away goals rule was not applied). If the score was still level at the end of extra time, the winners were decided by a penalty shoot-out. In the final, which was played as a single match, if the score was level at the end of normal time, extra time was played, followed by a penalty shoot-out if the score was still level.

The mechanism of the draws for each round was as follows:

  • In the draw for the knockout round play-offs, the eight group runners-up were seeded, and the eight Champions League group third-placed teams were unseeded. The seeded teams were drawn against the unseeded teams, with the seeded teams hosting the second leg. Teams from the same association could not be drawn against each other.
  • In the draw for the round of 16, the eight group winners were seeded, and the eight winners of the knockout round play-offs were unseeded. Again, the seeded teams were drawn against the unseeded teams, with the seeded teams hosting the second leg. Once again, teams from the same association could not be drawn against each other.
  • In the draws for the quarter-finals onwards, there were no seedings, and teams from the same association could be drawn against each other. As the draws for the quarter-finals and semi-finals were held together before the quarter-finals were played, the identity of the quarter-final winners was not known at the time of the semi-final draw. A draw was also held to determine which semi-final winner was designated as the "home" team for the final (for administrative purposes as it was played at a neutral venue).

In the knockout phase, teams from the same or nearby cities (Porto and Braga, as well as Sevilla and Real Betis) were not scheduled to play at home on the same day, due to logistics and crowd control. To avoid such scheduling conflicts, adjustments had to be made by UEFA. For the knockout round playoffs and a round of 16, since both teams were drawn to play at home in a given leg, the home match of the team that was not domestic cup champions in the qualifying season, or the team with the lower domestic ranking (if neither team were the domestic cup champions, i.e. Porto and Real Betis for this season), was moved from Thursday to Wednesday.{{cite news|date=14 December 2020|title=Europa League round of 32 draw: who will face who?|url=https://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/news/0264-1116649d8b50-d9ddd796d275-1000--europa-league-round-of-32-draw-who-will-face-who/|access-date=21 March 2021|website=UEFA}}{{Cite web |title=UEL Last 16 draw: Barcelona vs Galatasaray, Porto vs Lyon, Sevilla vs West Ham{{!}} All Football |url=https://m.allfootballapp.com/news/La-Liga/UEL-Last-16-draw-Barcelona-vs-Galatasaray-Porto-vs-Lyon-Sevilla-vs-West-Ham/2779618 |access-date=2024-03-19 |website=AllfootballOfficial |language=en}}{{Cite web |last=UEFA.com |date=2021-06-24 |title=UEFA Europa League round of 16 draw: 25 February {{!}} UEFA Europa League |url=https://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/news/026a-1298cde68e1e-6070da18f5e8-1000--uefa-europa-league-round-of-16-draw-25-february/ |access-date=2024-03-19 |website=UEFA |language=en}} For the quarter-finals and semi-finals, if the two teams were drawn to play at home for the same leg, the order of legs of the tie involving the team with the lowest priority was reversed from the original draw.
