For 7th to 15th ranked leagues, if the CLTH and the UCTH are from the same league, the Wildcard berth will became the Team3 of such league. If the CLTH and the UCTH are from a different league, ant the UCTH do qualify for Champions League by its own way, the Wildcard berth will became the Team2 of association 16.
