Due Kazakhstan's spring-fall league system, kazakh clubs are able to start their european campaign only for the next season. Currently club allocation is as following by default: 1 club (champion) for Champions League, 2 clubs (league runner-up and cup winner) for UEFA Cup and 1 club (league 3rd place) for Intertoto Cup. All of them start from first round of corresponding tournaments.
