Super Cup
Main article: 2019 Indian Super Cup

The Super Cup venue and fixtures were announced on 5 February 2019 with all matches to be played at Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar.[9][10] By the virtue of finishing outside top-6, the Aizawl had to play a qualification round in the Super Cup.[9][11] Before the qualification round, seven I-League clubs including the Aizawl announced they will withdraw from the Super Cup, citing "unfair treatment to I-League clubs."[12][13] They boycotted the qualifying round which resulted in walkover for the Chennaiyin to the main tournament.[5]
