The draw will take place in a joint event alongside the Europa League, with the Conference League expected to take place as the second of the two draws.
As with both the Champions League and Europa League, the Conference League will consist of 36 clubs.
Unlike the other two competitions, each team will play six league phase matches instead of eight.
For the draw, the 36 teams will be placed into six pots, with pot one being the highest-ranked and six being the lowest. The pot placements are based on the club's Uefa club coefficient ranking from the five-season period ending at the conclusion of the 2025-26 season.
Each team will face one team from each of the six pots and cannot face a team from the same country as themselves.
The teams who finish in the top eight places will qualify for the Conference League's last 16. Those between ninth and 24th place will enter the play-off knockout round. The 12 teams ranked between 25th and 36th place will exit the competition when the league phase is concluded.
Who is in each pot?
Atalanta, Braga, Ajax, Freiburg, Monaco and Copenhagen form a strong top pot which is full of teams inside Europe's 50 highest ranked clubs.
Brighton and Hove Albion, England's sole representative in the Conference League, earned the final spot in two. They are joined by Midtjylland, Red Star Belgrade, Gent Panathinaikos and Pafos.
La Liga side Getafe are among the six teams in pot three. They are joined by Lugano, KuPS, Twente, Lincoln Red Imps and Borac Banja Luka.
