Format
editThe regular season has a double round robin schedule, with each team playing the other seven teams twice, once at home and once away, for a total of 14 matches each. After that, the top four teams qualify for a championship playoff and the bottom four teams play a placement playoff. Each playoff also has a double round robin format, with teams playing the three other teams twice, for a total of 6 matches each. Points accumulated at the regular season are halved and added to the points of the playoff stage rounds. There is neither relegation nor promotion, and the champion and second-place teams qualify for the 2021–22 UEFA Women's Champions League.[1][2]
