The CONCACAF Gold Cup standings are determined by a points system within each group during the tournament's group stage. Teams earn three points for a win, one point for a draw, and zero points for a loss. After all group stage matches are played, teams are ranked within their respective groups based on total points. Tiebreakers, in order, include goal difference, goals scored, head-to-head results (if applicable), and potentially a drawing of lots. The top teams from each group, typically the top two, advance to the knockout stage to compete for the Gold Cup title.
