Per the competition regulations, the return leg semifinals matches will be hosted by the best performing club in each of the series (based on wins, draws, and, if required, goal difference in the previous round of the competition).

However, to maintain the integrity of this competition, and only for CD Guastatoya’s semifinal (the Guatemalan club did not participate in the Quarterfinals), Concacaf announced on October 1 that the highest-ranked club, based on total points accumulated in the Round of 16 according to the 2021 SCL regulations will host the second leg Semifinal.

Should CD Guastatoya advance to the Final, the highest ranked club based on the total points accumulated in the Round of 16 and Semifinals according to the 2021 SCL regulations will host the 2nd leg Final.

The Semifinals will be followed by home and away Finals. The schedule for the Finals is as follows:

Finals
December 7-9 (first leg)
December 14-15 (second leg)

The four 2021 SCL Semifinalists (CD Guastatoya, Comunicaciones FC, FC Motagua and Forge FC ) and two best performing Quarterfinalists (Deportivo Saprissa and Santos de Guapiles) who failed to advance to the semifinals have qualified for the 2022 Scotiabank Concacaf Champions League (SCCL). The winner of the 2022 SCCL will be crowned regional club champion and will represent the confederation at the FIFA Club World Cup.

The Semifinals will be widely available for fans across the region to follow and enjoy through the Confederation’s TV partner networks, including TUDN (USA-Spanish), Fox Sports (USA-English) Fox Sports (Mexico), ESPN (Central America), Flow Sports (Caribbean), and other local partners.

Matches will also be available on the Concacaf Official App (subject to territory restrictions). The free mobile app is available in the Apple and Google Play stores.
