The delegation will assess candidate stadiums and supporting infrastructure and meet authorities and representatives of transport, accommodation and stadium operations. The visits will inform the evaluation of proposed venues.

The final venue list has yet to be settled. The number and type of matches allocated to each city will be determined after the host venues are confirmed, as part of match scheduling. The announcement therefore does not constitute a final stadium selection or an award of the final.
