The Swiss system continues and will end only when eight of the strongest teams advance to Stage 3. In the third round, just like in the previous ones, teams with the same record face each other, making every match critically important for their tournament journey. The participants are currently divided into groups with results of 2–0, 1–1, and 0–2. Teams in the 1–1 bracket will play in a best-of-one format, while the 2–0 and 0–2 brackets will play best-of-three.
