The Egyptian Premier League has been operating under a new format since the previous season. The league is divided into two groups: the championship group and the relegation group. The championship group consists of the top six teams competing for the title and continental spots, while the relegation group comprises the remaining 14 teams fighting to avoid relegation. This format aims to make the competition more exciting and challenging for the teams.
The league's new format has been implemented to ensure that the competition is completed before the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations. The season features 20 teams, each playing 19 matches in the first stage. The teams will then be divided into two groups based on their standings. The top six teams will compete in the championship group, playing five additional matches, while the remaining teams will play 13 matches in the relegation group.
The championship group will determine the league champion and the teams that qualify for continental competitions. The relegation group, on the other hand, will identify the teams that will be relegated to a lower division. This format is designed to make the league more competitive and to provide a fair chance for all teams to succeed.
