- QF 2: Lowest #2 seed not from the same pool vs remaining #1 seed.
- QF 3: Remaining two #2 seeds play with the higher seed hosting.
- SF 1: QF3 vs Bye team SEE NOTE BELOW
- SF 2: QF1 vs QF2. Home team is the team with the highest pool score SEE NOTE BELOW
- NOTE: If either SF matchup above results in a match with teams from the same pool,
then the Bye team hosts the lowest seed from QF 2 and QF 3 that does not again result in teams from the same pool.
It is remotely possible that there is no scenario where the SF matches are not a rematch from pool play.
This can only happen if the three of the four SF teams originated from the same initial pool.
In that case the second place team from the pool hosts the third place team from the pool, and the first place team from that pool hosts the remining SF team.
