Preliminary Round
The schedule was announced on July 3, 2019. [five]
Rules
At the group stage, teams are ranked according to points (2 points for a victory, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). After the completion of the group stage, if two or more teams scored the same number of points, the rating will be determined as follows: [6]
1. Most points in matches between directly involved teams;
2. Excellent goal difference in matches between directly involved teams;
3. The greatest number of goals scored in matches between directly involved teams (or in an away match in the event of a tie with two teams);
4. Excellent goal difference in all matches of the group;
5. The greatest number of positive goals in all matches of the group;
If the rating of one of these teams is determined, the above criteria are carried out sequentially until the rating of all teams is determined. If the rating cannot be determined, the decision is made by the IHF by drawing lots.
At the group stage, only criteria 4–5 are applied to determine the preliminary rating of teams.
