Make sure there is zero plagiarism.: The 2023/24 AFC Champions League is proving to be biggest and most-watched events in the competition’s history.Star players flocked to Asian clubs this past summer, most notably in Saudi Arabia, and thus there’s already been massive attention on many fixtures throughout the competition. Cristiano Ronaldo is trying to win his first Asian continental title with Al Nassr, while Neymar is competing with Al Hilal, among many others.This competition is the first in two decades following a traditional club schedule from August to May, with all previous competitions since 2003 scheduled across a calendar year.This year’s competition will also be the final tournament in the current format, with next year moving to a three-tiered competition structure much like UEFA, while decreasing the top competition’s field in the process.MORE: How to watch AFC Champions League 2023/24: TV channel, live stream for Asia club championshipAFC Champions League fixtures, resultsKickoff time converterWith games taking place all across Asia, kickoff times can be difficult to translate to local regions across the world.Using this table, you can translate some of the listed kickoff times below to your own regional time zone to appropriately understand when games will start.Find your region in the first column, and then move across the row to find the column which reflects the local time zone of the match. The cell you land upon will tell you the time difference between your region and the local region of the match, allowing you to find your kickoff time using the listed kickoff time of the match.For example, if you are searching for your local kickoff time in U.S. Eastern Time, and you wish to watch a match of Al Hilal, who play home games in the UTC +3 region, you would find the “USA/Canada (ET)” row and match it with the cell in the “UTC +3” column to display a -7 time difference. Therefore, to convert a listed local match time of 9 p.m. in Saudi Arabia, you would subtract seven to find that the match kicks off at 2 p.m. in your region.
