Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to examine retrospectively the existence of a second‐leg home advantage effect in the knockout stages of Asian club tournaments. We analysed a total of 384 two‐legged knockout matches in the Asia Football Confederation (AFC) Champions League before the introduction of the inter‐annual format and COVID‐19. It was found that there is no significant second‐leg home advantage in the AFC Champions League in terms of promotion and goals or in any of the knockout stages.
