The New Beijing News reported that even though the start time of the 2022 Chinese Super League has yet to be officially confirmed, the major teams have been preparing for the start of the tournament according to the schedule of early June. 13 May, Beijing Guoan team departed for the Meizhou tournament, and after arriving at the week-long medical isolation test.
Shanghai Shenhua and Shanghai Seaport, the earliest Chinese Super League teams to arrive in Dalian, moved in on May 7 and 8, respectively. Beijing Guoan, on the other hand, departed from Beijing on the morning of the 13th and traveled through Jieyang, Guangdong Province to Meizhou. Similarly, the Guoan team must strictly follow the epidemic prevention regulations upon arrival at the tournament area and complete the quarantine test before starting normal training.
Haikou has been largely confirmed as the venue for this season's Chinese Super League (CSL) Third Division, nevertheless, the kick-off is tentatively scheduled for June 3rd. The three teams from Beijing and Shanghai are leaving early precisely to ensure that there is enough time for isolation.
According to the plan of the Chinese Football Association (CFA) and the Preparatory Group of the CFL, this season's Chinese Super League will adopt a three-region, four-phase system, and the 18 teams will be grouped in a serpentine arrangement based on their results from last season. Meizhou Hakka, as the host team, is grouped with Beijing Guoan, Shenzhen, Cangzhou Lions, Tianjin Jinmen Tigers and Chengdu Rongcheng.
In order to ensure that all 18 teams complete the 34 rounds and to avoid a situation where certain teams have not played another team all year in the past two seasons, teams will be rotated at the end of each stage based on last season's standings. However, the top two teams in each group will remain in their original division and will not be affected by the rotation. Looking at last year's rankings and the host principle, the top two teams in the Meizhou Division are Meizhou Hakka and Beijing Guoan, in the Haikou Division are Shandong Taishan and Changchun Yatai, and in the Dalian Division are Shanghai Harbor and Guangzhou.
In addition, the number of rounds in the four phases may also be adjusted, from the previous "10+8+8+8+8" to "8+8+8+10", i.e., eight rounds in each of the first three phases and 10 rounds in the final phase.
