Quarter-finals
A draw was held on 24 September 2021[13][14] to determine the matchups of the quarter-final stage and onwards. Nagoya Grampus was guaranteed to have home advantage in quarter-finals as they advanced to the quarter-finals of the 2021 AFC Champions League, while Urawa Red Diamonds, Kashima Antlers and Oita Trinita were drawn as the away team in quarter-finals as they could not guarantee their home stadium at the moment.
