The 2024 ASEAN Championship (officially the ASEAN Mitsubishi Electric Cup 2024 due to sponsorship reasons) is the 15th edition of the ASEAN Championship (formerly the AFF Championship), football tournament of nations affiliated to the ASEAN Football Federation (AFF).[1]
The final tournament was originally scheduled to run from 23 November to 21 December. However, the AFF decided to change the schedule from 8 December 2024 to 5 January 2025 to avoid conflicts with continental club competitions.
Thailand are the two-time defending champions.
Format
[edit]The ASEAN Mitsubishi Electric Cup 2024 will follow the 2018 and 2022 format. In the current format, the nine highest ranked teams would automatically qualify, with the 10th and 11th ranked teams playing a two-legged qualifier. The 10 teams would be split in two groups of five and play a round robin system with each team playing two home and two away fixtures. The top two sides of each group will advance to the knockout stages consisting of two-legged semi-finals and finals.[2]
Qualification
[edit]Nine teams automatically qualified to the ASEAN Championship final tournament. They were separated in respective pots, based on performance of the last two editions.
Brunei and East Timor, who were two lowest-performing teams, played a two-legged qualifier to determine the 10th and final qualifier. On 15 Oct 2024, East Timor beat Brunei by 1–0 on aggregrate to become the last participant.[3]
Australia, a member since 2013, still decided not to debut at the tournament.

[edit]Notes
[edit]- ^ East Timor will play their home games in a neutral venue, due to the National Stadium in Dili failing to meet FIFA standards.
- ^ Vietnam originally scheduled to play its home matches at the Mỹ Đình National Stadium, but later the stadium was booked for a concert on 7 December.[4] As a result, Vietnam will host its game at the Việt Trì Stadium.[5]
