This made it the first edition of the ISL in which there are more than eight teams participating.[3] As well as expanding two teams, the league also expanded two more months, being played in five months instead of three.[3] Away goal rule is introduced in semifinals stage in this season.

Expansion edit

On 11 May 2017, it was announced by the Indian Super League organizers, Football Sports Development, that they would be inviting bids for new teams to join the league for the upcoming season.[14] The bids would be for ten cities, namely Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Cuttack, Durgapur, Hyderabad, Jamshedpur, Kolkata, Ranchi, Siliguri and Thiruvananthapuram.[14] It was also clarified that if Kolkata were to win at least one bid for a team, the new "Kolkata" side would have to play away from the city for two seasons.[14]

On 25 May 2017, it was announced that bidding for new teams had ended and that the league's appointed external validator would look over the bids.[15] It was also announced that Bengaluru, the two-time champion of the I-League, India's top-tier professional football league, had submitted a bid.[15] Two weeks later, on 12 June, it was officially announced that Bengaluru (for Bangalore) and Tata Group (for Jamshedpur) had won the bids for the new teams.[16]
