The 2024 ASEAN Championship (officially the ASEAN Mitsubishi Electric Cup 2024 due to sponsorship reasons) is the 15th edition of the ASEAN Championship, football tournament of nations affiliated to the ASEAN Football Federation (AFF). This is also the first edition that the tournament was rebranded to ASEAN Championship.[1]
The final tournament was originally scheduled to run from 23 November to 21 December. However, AFF decided to change the schedule from 9 December 2024 to 5 January 2025 to avoid conflicts with AFC club competitions.
Thailand are the two-time defending champions.
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]
See main article: 2024 ASEAN Championship qualification. 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, will play a two-legged qualifier to determine the 10th and final qualifier.
Australia, a member since 2013, is yet to debut at the tournament.
