2020 First Division

edit

First stage

  • The 10 clubs are divided into two groups, in which teams from one group play against all teams of the other group.
  • Last two teams are eliminated from the competition with the last one relegated to the second division, while the two best of each group qualify to the semifinal.
  • In the semifinal, the best-placed team of each group face the second-best-placed of their own group in a single match. The two teams which qualify to the final, also played in a single match.

Second stage

  • The remaining eight teams are divided into two groups, facing the other teams of their own group.
  • The two best teams of each group qualify to the semifinal, where the best-placed team of each group face the second-best-placed of the opposing group in a single match. The two teams which qualify to the final, also played in a single match.

Third stage (if necessary)

  • Home-and-away playoff with the winners of the first and second stages.

If a team wins both stages (first and second) it is crowned the state champion. If not, the third stage is disputed, and the winner is the state champion.
