The teams face each other in 38 rounds, that is, each of the 20 teams faces each other twice.
One game as the home team (playing at home), and the other as a visitor (playing away from home).
At the end of the 38th round, the team with the most points wins the competition, however, it is not only first place that matters.
The teams that finish the competition in 1st, 2nd and 3rd earn a place directly in the Champions League, the biggest Championship in Europe.
Whoever finishes 4th will be able to compete in a play-off to also try for a place in the Champions League. Fifth place wins a place in the Europa League.
