The European Club Association are set to meet in Geneva on Tuesday to decide what the future of European football will look like from 2024.
UEFA had proposed a revamped Champions League structure with four groups of eight clubs, as opposed to the eight groups of four that exist at the moment. That would mean 14 games with some of those fixtures to be played at the weekend.
There are also suggestions 24 of the 32 teams taking part would be guaranteed places in the competition for the following season, no matter how well they performed domestically.
However, the plans have been met with opposition from leagues, fan groups and chief executives. Earlier this year Premier League clubs unanimously voiced their concerns.
It is understood there are worries the changes would lead to overcrowded calendars, with leagues having to alter some domestic fixtures. There is also a sense many want merit-based qualification to all competitions.
As such, it is thought the ECA will reconsider the original proposals and any changes will be far less radical than anything initially envisaged.
Some of ECA's key principles
• More European matches with higher quality and a more competitive environment at all levels
• Greater financial stability
• Links between how clubs perform in domestic leagues and how they access European competitions
