Each team plays a home and away series versus the other 3 teams in their groups making a total of six games per team. The standings are done like the World Cup: 3 points for a win, 1 point for a tie and 0 points for a loss.
The top 16 teams (top 2 from each group) move onto the knockout stage of this tournament. The knockout stage is done in a home and away series between the two teams who draw each other with the aggregate goals (total goals in both games) being tallied to determine the winner of the round.
