Egyptian Premier League Table Summary



Egyptian Premier League Table Summary

 Basics

  • Teams: The Egyptian Premier League features 18 professional football (soccer) clubs in Egypt.
  • Matches: Each team plays every other team twice during the season (once at home and once away), resulting in a total of 34 games per team.

How Points Determine the Table

  • Points System: The Egyptian Premier League table ranks teams based on the total points they earn throughout the season. Points are awarded as follows:

    • Win: 3 points
    • Draw: 1 point
    • Loss: 0 points
  • Ranking: Teams are ordered from the highest number of points to the lowest.

Tiebreakers

If two or more teams end with equal points, the following tiebreakers are used to determine positions:

  1. Head-to-Head Results: Results from direct matches between the tied teams take priority. The team with more points (and potentially better goal difference) in their head-to-head matches gets the higher rank.
  2. Goal Difference: The overall difference between goals scored and goals allowed during the season. If teams are still equal, the team with the better goal difference ranks higher.
  3. Goals Scored: The team with more goals scored throughout the season ranks higher.

Important Outcomes

  • Champions: The team at the top of the Egyptian Premier League table at the end of the season claims the championship title.
  • Continental Qualification: The top teams in the league may qualify for African continental competitions like the CAF Champions League or the CAF Confederation Cup.
  • Relegation: The bottom three teams in the final table are relegated to the Egyptian Second Division.
