Participating teams will reach 18. Sohu sports learned that in order to enhance the competitiveness of the league, the CFL side intends to adjust the existing league promotion and relegation rules to increase the number of relegation quota, the possibility of adjusting the program from last season's use of 0.5 + 0.5 to 2.5 quota, that is to say, the bottom of the league, the two teams are relegated directly to the bottom third of the team and the third in the Central League of the Super League playoffs. After the completion of the adjusted program with

Last season took 0.5 + 0.5 elevation rules, the result of the league bottom two teams Qingdao and Dalian people in the two rounds of the Super League play-offs all lost, and ultimately suffered relegation, but also appeared in the four Central League teams at the same time to the Super League of the spectacle.

The league will be back on track, and without any major surprises will surely reach the full 34 rounds.

Normal promotion and relegation will also be resumed. However, the authorities concerned have taken into account that with the expansion of the league, the number of participating teams in the top league has increased to 18, and if the system of two promotions and two relegations is still adopted, the middle and lower relegation teams will lack motivation, and the quality of the league will be affected to a certain extent, and thus they intend to increase the number of relegation quotas by amending the system.
However, at present, this proposal is still under discussion and has not been finalized. Whether the number of relegation places will be increased to 2.5 or 3 teams will be relegated, there is no final conclusion yet. However, from the current situation, I am afraid that increasing the number of relegation places is a probable event, and I am afraid that the participating clubs have to prepare for this early.
