A new edition of the Romanian football championships, known as the Super-league, begins on Friday with the best 16 elevens vying for the title. The competition will have two parts, the first consists of the football season per se when all the sides will play each other.


The first half of the season, which kicks off this weekend, has 15 legs and is due to end in November, the second half, with the same number of legs will end in March next year. The first six sides at the end of the first season will met in the play-offs for the title of Champions and for a place in the European Cups. They will play against each other during the first five legs, then they will meet again for the return matches. The champion side will go into the preliminaries of the Champions League and the runner up into the Conference League preliminaries. The third side in the ranking will be playing the best side in the play-out for a place in the Conference League.

The first two sides will play a tie match and the winner will be taking on the third side in the play-offs for a place in the Conference Leagues preliminaries.
