I got 9 out of 10. As far as I understood the cup tie is a term that is used when the winner of match goes through / advance to the knockout stage right ?

I got 10 from 10. It's very good.
Could someone help me understand the diference between "Cup Tie" vs "Knockouts"?

That's a good question. I had always thought that a cup tie was just a fixture in a cup competition. So in the World Cup, there is a group stage and a knockout stage. I would have referred to all the fixtures as World Cup ties, but some dictionaries say that a cup tie is a deciding contest so that would mean that the losing team is knocked out.
We also talk about ties more generally and just mean a fixture or a match between two clubs. In the Champions League, the ties involve two games; a home leg and an away leg.
Thanks

Hi Taher Koshen
A cup tie is a phrase that means a fixture in a cup competition. When a club is set to play in a competition, they are said to be tied with another team, meaning the match with the other team has been arranged. So a match in the FA Cup between Manchester United and Liverpool that's due to take place in the future could be described as a cup tie.
I hope that helps
Thanks
