The season began on 9 March and concluded on 2 November.[2]
Policy regarding foreign players and U-23 domestic players was modified in this season. The same as the previous two seasons, at least one domestic player who is under the age of 23 (born on or after 1 January 1996) must be in the starting eleven. However, the total number of foreign players appearing in matches is no longer related to the total number of U-23 domestic players. A club can register three foreign players at most in the same time and use two foreign players at most in a match. On the other hand, at least two U-23 domestic players must be used in a match. In addition, if there are U23 players who have been called up by the national teams at all levels, the number of U-23 domestic players fielded will be reduced accordingly.[3]
In order to expand the number of teams from 16 to 18 in 2020 season, this season will only directly relegate 1 team instead of 2 teams while 2 teams will enter relegation playoffs.[3]
