The 2014–15 CONCACAF Champions League group stage was played from August 5 to October 23, 2014. A total of 24 teams competed in the group stage to decide the eight teams which advanced to the championship stage of the 2014–15 CONCACAF Champions League.[1]

Draw

The draw for the group stage was held on May 28, 2014, 19:00 EDT (UTC−4), at the InterContinental Hotel at Doral in Miami.[2]

The 24 teams were drawn into eight groups of three, with each group containing one team from each of the three pots. The allocation of teams into pots was based on their national association and qualifying berth. Teams from the same association could not be drawn with each other in the group stage, and each group was guaranteed to contain a team from either the United States or Mexico, meaning U.S. and Mexican teams could not play each other in the group stage.[1]

Seeding

The following were the group stage seeding of the 24 teams which qualified for the Champions League:[3]

Pot A
Mexico León Mexico Pachuca United States Sporting Kansas City United States New York Red Bulls

Notes
  1. ^ The identity of the representative of Canada was not known at the time of the draw, as the 2014 Canadian Championship final had not been played yet.
  2. ^ Belmopan Bandits (Belize) were entered at the time of the draw, but they were later replaced by Herediano (Costa Rica) after failing stadium requirements.

Format

In the group stage, each group was played on a home-and-away round-robin basis. The winners of each group advanced to the championship stage.

  4. Reapply first three criteria if two or more teams are still tied;
