Australia is the only nation in the AFC to have had clubs win both the AFC Champions League and AFC Cup.

Overview

AFC allocation

Since 2007, Australian clubs have participated in the AFC Champions League. For their first five competitions, the A-League was given two spots in the league- one for the champions (grand final winners) and one for the premiers (regular season winners- or the losing grand finalist if the champions and premiers were the same team). For the 2012 competition, another half a spot was added, with the highest placed team on the A-League table which has not already qualified for the AFC Champions League entering a playoff to enter the competition.

For the 2013 competition the AFC reduced the number of A-League qualification spots to 1.5. [1] The Premiers (regular season winners) directly qualified for the Asian Champions League. The Champions (winners of grand final) entered a play off to qualify for the competition. The AFC ruled that the A-League did not meet the criteria for full participation in the tournament, including the lack of promotion and relegation within a tiered league system was a major reason, and that the A-league was not run as a separate entity to the FFA. [2] [3]

From the 2014 AFC Champions League until the 2016 edition, the allocation of two spots in the group stage and one qualifying play-off spot returned [4] [5] and in 2017, the qualifying play-off spot dropped back to a place in the preliminary round 2. [6] [7] [8]

For the 2023–24 AFC Champions League a single team will compete in the group stage, with two teams qualifying to the second-tier 2023–24 AFC Cup group stage. [9]
