The 93rd 2019 Lunar New Year Cup (Chinese: 豬年賀歲盃; literally: "Year of the Pig Celebrate New Year Cup") was the annual edition of the Lunar New Year Cup, held in Hong Kong to celebrate the Lunar New Year in early February 2019. This year, four teams were invited to participate, playing two games each in a knockout tournament.
The two semi-finals for the four participating teams were held on the first day of the Lunar New Year of Pig (5 February 2019). The winning teams entered the final and the losing teams play the third-place playoff (Both matches on the third day of the Lunar New Year, i.e. 7 February.) Draw in the semi-finals and third-place playoff were settled by penalty shootout directly, that means no extra time would be played. For the final, a thirty-minute extra time would be played after a draw. A further draw would lead to the penalty shootout.
Four teams were invited to participate:
- HK LNY Selection Team (hosts)
- Sagan Tosu
- Auckland City
- Shandong Luneng
