Pools composition
This was the first Asian Club Championship which used the new competition format. Following the 2017 AVC Board of Administration's unanimous decision, the new format saw teams were drawn into four pools up to the total amount of the participating teams. Each team as well as the hosts was assigned into a pool according to their final standing of the 2017 edition . As the three best ranked teams were drawn in the same pool A, the next best three contested pool B, the next best four contested pool C.[3] Final standing of the 2017 edition are shown in brackets.
