UEFA Champions League entry has not satisfied strategyproofness in three seasons

Published 20 Jan 2018 in physics.soc-ph | (1801.06644v5)

Abstract: The paper investigates the qualification for the UEFA Champions League, the most prestigious club competition in European football with respect to the theoretical property of strategy-proofness. We find that in three seasons (2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18), the UEFA Europa League titleholder might have been better off by losing its match against the Champions League titleholder in their domestic championship. A straightforward solution is suggested in order to avoid the occurrence of this paradox. The use of an incentive compatible rule would have a real effect on the qualification in these three seasons of the UEFA Champions League.
