Notes

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Europe, the match was played behind closed doors.
Qarabağ played their home matches at the neutral venue Başakşehir Fatih Terim Stadium, Istanbul (Turkey), instead of their regular home stadium Tofiq Bahramov Republican Stadium, Baku, as UEFA announced on 20 October 2020 to temporarily suspend all UEFA matches taking place in Armenia and Azerbaijan until further notice due to the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.[42]
The Villarreal v Maccabi Tel Aviv match was originally scheduled at 21:00, but was delayed due to heavy rain.
The Villarreal v Qarabağ match was cancelled and awarded as a 3–0 win to Villarreal after several players of the Qarabağ squad were tested positive for the SARS-CoV-2.[43]
