Regular season

The 16 clubs initially played the regular season in a double round. The final table served as the basis for qualifying for various placement rounds.

The six best-placed clubs reached the championship round (play-offs 1), the teams in positions seven to fourteen played for a possible international starting place (play-offs 2). In contrast to the previous seasons, the so-called play-offs 3, in which the two last-placed clubs of the regular season played off a participant in the relegation round and a relegated player in the second division, were omitted. After the end of the 30 game days, the bottom of the table was relegated directly, while the bottom of the table held the class.

It should be noted that in the championship round half of the number of points achieved from the 30 games of the preliminary round is carried over, so that the further matches can only cause minor changes depending on the table situation.
