The clubs play a double round tournament , which results in a total of 22 games per team. The game is played according to the 3-point rule (three points per win, one point per tie). The table is determined according to the following criteria:

  1. Number of points scored
  2. Goal difference from all games
  3. Number of goals in all games
  4. Number of points scored in direct comparison
  5. Number of points scored in direct comparison
  6. Goal difference in direct comparison

At the end of the season, the team with the highest points qualifies for the group stage of the AFC Cup 2019 . The Lebanese FA Cup winner will take part in the play-off round of the AFC Cup. However, if he already qualifies through the league, the second in the league takes his place in the play-offs.

The two clubs with the fewest points are relegated to the second-rate Lebanese Second Division .
