2001–02 UEFA Champions League second group stage
Eight winners and eight runners-up from the first group stage were drawn into four groups of four teams, each containing two group winners and two runners-up. Teams from the same country or from the same first round group could not be drawn together. The top two teams in each group advanced to the quarter-finals.

Notes
- ↑ Juventus v Bayer Leverkusen was originally scheduled for 21 November, but had to be postponed to 28 November due to heavy fog in Turin. The game was postponed for one more day because of the same issues of low visibility.
