July 7 – Concacaf has released the schedule for the 2023/24 Concacaf Nations League (CNL) that will be played in the International Match Windows of September, October, and November 2023.
With the Nations League 2022/23 final competition having only just been completed in June, teams are already turning around for the third edition of the competition which will qualify six teams for the Conmebol Copa America that will be played in the US in 2024.
The four nations that qualify for the Nations League finals (to be played in March 2024) will automatically qualify for Copa America 2024, while the next two will qualify via a single match elimination play-in between the four losing Nations League quarter finalists. That play-in will also take place in March.
Revamped Nations League
Concacaf has restructured the Nations League (CNL) for this edition and will see the 98 matches played across the CNL’s three tiers in September, October and November.
League A has been expanded to include 16 teams (up from 12) and a new quarter-final round has been created that will see more direct elimination matches. The top four ranked Concacaf teams – USA, Mexico, Canada and Costa Rica – have pre-qualified for the quarter-final stage.
The next 12 teams have been split into two groups of six and will play a ‘Swiss style’ league system. With each team playing four games (two at home and two away). The top four will qualify for the quarter finals.
The quarter-final round will be played in a home-and-away format in November 2023.
