"The club Level of the competitors may not be the same in the Champions League competition since the mixing of teams depends on how many teams are available for each level in every server."
bs, this should happen only in the top of every server, not in lower levels of the game except 1-2 teams that had to complete the last CL competition of every lv with 32 teams.

But no, it's their system. If you have a team above 120-130% quality, they put you on purpose on a higher level competition so to make you spend more money, tokens and greens.
