摘要：AbstractNowadays, the International Federation of Football (FIFA) has 208 members, and Asian Football Confederation (AFC) is responsible for organizing and developing football as the most important organization in the old continent. Asian Champions League (ACL) is a football high level competition in Asia. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the criteria of AFC and the success of countries’ representatives in ACL. This study was casual-comparative and applied. The statistical population included 32 clubs that participated in the 10thpreliminary round of ACL. The statistical sample consisted of 11 countries which have representatives in this event. The data gathered from official website of AFC (www.the-afc.com), and the official magazine of Iran Pro League Federation “The Vision of Soccer”. For analysing the data, we utilized K-S, Pearson Correlation Coefficient and Stepwise Multi Regression. The results indicated that there was a significant positive relationship between AFC criteria and the success of countries’ representative in Asian Champions League (ACL). Also, technical standards predict the success of countries’ representative in ACL significantly (p< 0.0001,β= 0.88). It seems that more attention to the technical standards will bring better results for the next seasons.
