The Concacaf (N American) Champions League bracket is set, and gets underway Feb 19. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_CONCACAF_Champions_League

The first round is basically a bunch of Caribbean/Central American teams getting wiped out by the Mexican/MLS teams, with an eye towards having four Mexico vs MLS quarterfinal match ups in round 2.

The five MLS teams are Atlanta United, Red Bull NY, Houston Dynamo, Sporting KC and Toronto FC.

FC Cincinnati will balance the divisions at 12 each, and with it comes a revised playoff format. 

14 teams instead of 12, one off matches all the way through instead of 2 legged quarter/semifinals, and first round byes for Conference Champions only. 



The regular season will remain at 34 games, which is the perfect number to play each team in your own division twice, once at home and once on the road, and each team in the opposite division once.

Atlanta United's CONCACAF Champions League first round opponent (Herediano) is off to a poor start in 2019. Midway through the fourth round of matches, they are dead last in the 12 team Costa Rican Primera Division.

I knew that USA and Mexico each get 4 auto bids, and Canada gets one. Hadn't really looked much into the others until just the other day. 

Five of the seven Central American countries each get one auto bid. So that uses up all but two. 

One of the two remaining auto bids goes to the Caribbean, where all of those countries have a giant tournament to fight over their singular auto bid. Then the other three Caribbean semifinal participants enter into a second tournament with a bunch of Central American teams. 

In this second tournament each Central American Country gets two auto bids except for Belize who only gets one. For Belize and Nicaragua the second tournament is their only possible path to a champions league bid, since neither country gets an auto bid to the main champions league tournament.

Is it 2022 or 2026 when they broke the damn thing by screwing up the format by (1) making qualifications a complete joke, and (2) basically making it a big single elimination final tournament; and have to play it in like December because they are staging it in the middle of the desert?

2022 it's in dec in desert. but still same 32 team, 4 team group stage + 4 knockout rounds format

2026 it's in usa/canada/mexico (primarily usa). but going from 32 teams to 48, and doing a 3 team group instead of 4 with 2 advancing, and adding an extra knockout stage. or that's last i heard.
