📝 Useful Information
The final rounds of the 2025–26 AFC Champions League Elite (ACL Elite) will be hosted in Jeddah, not Buraydah. While Buraydah's King Abdullah Sport City Stadium occasionally hosts domestic league matches for teams like Al-Ahli, all ACL Elite knockout matches from the quarter-finals onwards are scheduled for Jeddah.
The tournament's final stage will be held in a centralized format across two major stadiums in Jeddah.
The draw for the final eight clubs is scheduled to take place on March 25, 2026, to determine the exact quarter-final pairings.
