Topps Champions League 2019/2020

 

The official sticker collection of the Champions League 2019/2020 is the fifth consecutive album released by Topps. The style of the album and stickers is similar to the previous editions. After an introductory page with the contents of the collection and three stickers (Champions League logo, trophy and the 2019 winners), all the 32 participating clubs are shown one after the other. Due to the early release of the collection in September 2019, the clubs are not shown following the group division. Instead, the 26 teams directly qualified to the group stage are shown first in alphabetical order. For these clubs there are 19 stickers over two pages: the club badge (large size shiny sticker), the stadium (shiny sticker), the top scorer (shiny sticker) and 16 players out of which one is a shiny sticker. The last six clubs that joined the group stage after the play-offs are at the end of the album with only 16 stickers on one page: the shiny club badge and 15 players. The album ends with two sections dedicated to the UEFA Youth League and the Women's Champions League. For both pages there is one large size shiny stickers with the winners of the previous season (Porto in the Youth League and Olympique Lyonnais in the Women's Champions League). This collection includes the rookie sticker of Erling Haaland.

The 2019/20 Champions League was affected by the pandemic and it resumed in August 2020 after being suspended in March 2020. In the final, Bayern Munchen defeated Paris Saint-Germain with a goal scored by Coman (1-0).
