Rules
The teams ranked 7th to 10th at the end of the National League regular season compete in the play-in, with a view to obtaining one of the two qualifying places for the playoffs. The 7th faces the 8th and the 9th faces the 10th in a series of 2 matches with the higher ranked team starting away. The winner of the series is the one with the most points. In the event of a tie at the end of the two matches, the teams decide on overtime. This translates as follows: a team wins 1-0 the first match and loses 8-1 the second match, can qualify thanks to an overtime goal, with a goal difference of -5. If the higher ranked team starts away, it is to have the advantage in the decisive match.[3]
The winner of the match between the 7th and 8th qualifies for the playoffs and faces the 2nd in the general ranking. The loser will face the winner of the match between the 9th and the 10th in a second round. The winner of this confrontation qualifies for the playoffs and faces the winner of the regular season. The two eliminated teams see their seasons end.[4]
