Liga Bet teams joined the competition. The draw, in which the 27 matches of the round was set, was unseeded and wasn't regionalized. Only 17 matches were played, with the remaining ten matches given as a walkover victory either due to away teams failing to appear to the match or due to home teams not sending referee invitations to the IFA.[3]
