Note: NA* = Not applicable, if two teams are tied for #2, #5 and #9, a classification game (a knockout game in case for the #9 seed) will be held regardless of elimination round results.

Ties were held for the second and fifth seeds; since the ties were at critical positions (i.e. the seeds were at the last berths for a stage), classification games will be held to determine which team will clinch the higher seed, and the privileges that go along with it.
