How the season works
Twelve teams play a single round-robin Opening Round, then split into a Top 6 and Bottom 6. Points reset for the Closing Round, which repeats the process. If one club wins both rounds they are champions outright; otherwise the title is decided in a Finalissima or Final Four. Floriana are the reigning champions, having beaten Marsaxlokk 2-1 in last season’s Final Four final.
