Notes

  1. The second leg fixture between MC Alger and Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya, originally scheduled to be played on 24 November 2019, was postponed following issues concerning the travels of Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya due to security concerns from the 2019 Iraqi protests. The UAFA later announced that the match would take place on 16 December 2019.
