AFC club competitions ranking
The AFC club competitions ranking is a ranking system launched by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) in 2014.[1] The ranking is based on the results of teams participating in the last four years of the AFC Champions League and the AFC Cup. The ranking is used for determine slot allocation for the AFC member associations in its club competitions.
Calculation principle
The club competitions ranking (former member association ranking, or MA ranking) is used to rank associations and also used for seeding teams in the competitions. It is also used to allocate the number of entries and entry points to the competitions.[2][3] There are, however, many shifts each year with associations not meeting off field requirements.
Each team is awarded points based on their performance in AFC club competitions. Points earned of a country in a season consists of two parts. First, the points earned in group and knockout stages by all clubs from the country will be divided by the number of participating clubs in that tournament (points from AFC Champions League teams and AFC Cup teams are counted and averaged separately, then added to each other). Second, the points earned from qualifying stages (if any). Points earned by all clubs from the country in two parts are added up to be the country's points for the season.
The ranking until 2021 consists of the total of points of member associations' clubs over the past four years. The leading association's points earned are made 100 points in percentage terms. All other associations are adjusted proportionally to the leading team. From the 2022 edition, the ranking uses the points over the past eight years, with the former ones have lower multiplier (the latest year is fully added, each year before has its multiplier decrease by 0.1).
