This year Concacaf announced a change to the confederation’s format for qualification to the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
The simplest way to qualify will be through the Hexagonal, the usual six-team round-robin finish to Concacaf’s qualification process. However this time the top six teams in the region, per FIFA rankings, will automatically jump to the final Hex stage.
Canada are currently seventh in those rankings.
If that remains the case come June, all is not lost. But what will their qualification path look like?
GROUP STAGE – September, October, November 2020
The first step of qualification won’t start until September of 2020.
