← Premier League 2011/12 |
The Maltese Premier League 2012/13 was the 98th season in the history of the highest Maltese football league . The season started on August 18, 2012 and ended on May 11, 2013 with the championship final between FC Birkirkara and Hibernians Paola .
mode
After a preliminary round, consisting of a first and a second round, the league was divided into two groups of six: the best six teams play in the championship round for the title and the international starting positions, the six worst teams against relegation. Half of the points achieved in the preliminary round are credited (half points are rounded up).

Compared to the 2011/12 season , the composition of the league changed as follows: FC Marsaxlokk and FC Mqabba rose after only one year as the last and penultimate teams in the playout group in the First Division (second highest division), and were replaced by Melita FC and Rabat Ajax FC .
Only a few stadiums in Malta have the necessary infrastructure to be able to hold regular Premier League matches. These were Ta 'Qali Stadium , Victor Tedesco Stadium , and Hibernians Football Ground . Each team has its own training area, but usually no matches are played on it. The games therefore usually take place on neutral ground, which essentially makes the distinction between home and away games obsolete.
