The Premier Cup was a one-off football tournament held to mark the coronation of Queen Alexandra on 1 August 2019. Contested between sixteen football clubs, the tournament lasted for over four weeks, beginning on 18 May 2019 and ending on 30 May 2019.
Consisting of a total of sixteen clubs, in alphabetical order, the teams that competed in the tournament were:
- Arsenal
- Bohemian
- Cardiff City
- Celtic
- Chelsea
- Dundalk
- Hamburger SV
- Hannover 96
- Liverpool
- Manchester City
- Manchester United
- Rangers
- SV Werder Bremen
- Shamrock Rovers
- Swansea City
- Tottenham Hotspur
In total, the tournament consisted of four stages, namely the round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and finals, all of which are one-legged occasions. Meanwhile, the clubs that compete in the tournament are drawn against one another at random via a televised lucky draw, and their fixtures in the round of 16, quarter-finals, and semi-finals are played simultaneously. In the aftermath of the tournament, the finals were held at Wembley Stadium, London.
Similar to most football tournaments, penalty shootouts were used to break any potential deadlocks. Meanwhile, a player who has picked up two cumulative yellow cards or a red card is declared ineligible for the next match and must therefore wait out the suspension period before being allowed to return.
