CL new format - can anyone explain ?

The top 8 will probably be the usual suspects. Everybody else just hoping to fight it out for the play off. To us achieving that would be fucking amazing. I would donate everybody on here to medical science for experiments to achieve that.

The listed table after 1 game (yeah I know - 1 game)

Why are Shaktar below Bologna ? They should be above Atalanta ?

If it was based on the away result, surely it should be the other way round.

Not that it matters after 1 game (well 3 results of 0-0), just seems random, the other 4 I can kinda see, as it's away team before home team, and then alphabetical.
