In the default access list, the title holders of the CONCACAF Confederations League qualify for the group stage. However, since this berth is not used for this season, the following changes to the access list are made:

  • The cup winners of association 7 enter the group stage instead of the play-off round.
  • The cup winners of associations 13 and 14 enter the play-off round instead of the third qualifying round.

Changes will be made to the access list above, if any of the teams that qualify for the SuperLiga via their domestic competitions also qualify for the Champions League as the Champions League or SuperLiga title holders, or if there are fewer teams transferred from the Champions League due to changes in the Champions League access list. In any case where a spot in the SuperLiga is vacated, teams of the highest-ranked associations in earlier rounds will be promoted accordingly.
