Format
In the qualifying play-offs, each tie was played as a single match. Extra time and penalty shoot-out were used to decide the winner if necessary (Regulations Article 9.2). The eight winners of the play-off round advanced to the group stage to join the 24 direct entrants. All losers in each round from associations with only play-off slots entered the AFC Cup group stage.[2]
Schedule
The schedule of each round is as follows.[1]
| Round | Match date |
|---|---|
| Preliminary round 1 | 5 February 2019 |
| Preliminary round 2 | 12 February 2019 |
| Play-off round | 19 February 2019 |
Bracket
The bracket of the qualifying play-offs for each region was determined by the AFC based on the association ranking of each team, with the team from the higher-ranked association hosting the match. Teams from the same association could not be placed into the same play-off.[3]
