- The league was also reduced to 18 teams. Now, the bottom four placed teams will be relegated.[4]
- The tie-breakers in placed are with two teams tied: points in direct matches, goal difference in direct matches, goals scored in direct matches, goal difference in all matches, goals scored in all matches. If the tie can't be broken down, one or more play-off games are held at a neutral venue.[4]
