Competition format edit
The participating teams first play a conventional round-robin schedule, with every team playing each opponent once "home" and once "away", for a total of 14 games. The league is then split up into two groups of four teams, with each of them playing teams within its group in a home-and-away cycle of games. The bottom four clubs play for one direct relegation spot, and one relegation play-off spot. Records earned in the first round are taken over to the respective Second round.
The four teams of the top group will join the championship playoffs.
