Football league season From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

2018 V.League 1

The 2018 V.League 1 season (for sponsorship reasons also known as Nuti Café V.League 1)[1] was the 35th season of the V.League 1, the highest division of Vietnamese football and the 18th as a professional league. The season started on 10 March 2018[2] and ran until 8 October 2018.[2] It was expected to be known as the Toyota V.League 1, however, in December 2017 Toyota ended their sponsorship deal with the Vietnam Football Federation one year early.[3]

Changes from last season

Team changes

The following teams have changed division since the 2017 season.

Rule changes

Due to the increased number of teams in 2018 V.League 2 (10), there will be 1.5 relegation places in the 2018 V.League 1 season - the team finishing 14th will be relegated automatically, whilst the team finishing 13th will play a two-legged play-off against the team that finishes second in the 2018 V.League 2.[2]

The league will continue to operate the "2+1" foreigner rule, meaning each squad shall be allowed 2 non-Vietnamese players and 1 naturalised Vietnamese. FLC Thanh Hoa and Song Lam Nghe An shall be allowed 3 non-Vietnamese players, 1 naturalised Vietnamese and 1 player from Asia because they will participate in AFC Cup.
