The 2019 Malaysia Challenge Cup or Challenge Cup (Malay: Piala Cabaran Malaysia 2019) is the second edition of Malaysia Challenge Cup tournament organised by Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) and Malaysian Football League (MFL).[1][2]

The 2019 Malaysia Challenge Cup will start with a preliminary round. A total of 7 teams took part in the competition. The teams were divided into two groups, one group containing four teams and another with three teams. The group leaders and runners-up teams in the groups after four or six matches qualified to the semi-finals.

Format

[edit]

The competition will be one involving eight teams-one team from Malaysia Super League (12th placed team), seven teams from Malaysia Premier League (6th to 12th placed teams). However, due to the fact that Perlis were thrown out of the league, there are no teams will be invited into the Challenge Cup to replace them.
