Al-Faisaly successfully defended their title, beating Al-Muharraq 5–4 on aggregate in the final. With this victory Al-Faisaly became the first side to win the competition two years in a row.

Qualification

The AFC invited the fourteen 'developing' nations to nominate one or two clubs to participate in the competition. Clubs from Myanmar and North Korea did not participate in the competition. This marked the first year in which clubs from Bahrain participated in the competition, as Bahrain was demoted to a 'developing' status by the AFC. ::data[format=table]
