Editorial Standings Standard
In the event that two or more teams finish level on points upon the completion of all three matchdays, they are ordered in our static tables according to the following baseline sequence:
- Superior goal difference (GD) in all group matches.
- Greatest number of goals scored (GF) in all group matches.
- Highest number of points obtained in the group matches between the teams concerned (Head-to-head points).
