Consequently, the AFC Champions League Elite 2025/26™ Round of 16 West Region battles will take place on April 13 and 14 at the King Abdullah Sports City and the Prince Abdullah Al Faisal Sports City Stadium in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, just prior to the AFC Champions League Elite Finals Jeddah 2026™, which is scheduled to be held from April 16 to 25.
