Eintracht Frankfurt made their debut appearance in the group stage, which was their first appearance in the European Cup since their loss in the 1960 final, after winning the 2021–22 UEFA Europa League. This was thus the first time that five German clubs played in the group stage.
A total of 15 national associations were represented in the group stage. This season was the first since the 1995–96 season in which a Turkish side failed to qualify for the group stage. It was also the first time since the 2007–08 season that two Scottish sides qualified for the group stage.
This year's Champions league featured both the eventual Champions league winners; Manchester City and Europa League winners, Sevilla in the same group (Group G)
