Play-offs in Cyprus football

Postby Rovers3City0 » Mon Feb 20, 2017 10:16 am

I know that in the top league there is a 'top 6' and 'next 6' play off after the main league has been completed.
Does the same system apply in the other divisions or not?

And is it 3 up 3 down from the first to second division, and from second to third and third to fourth?

(There is zero coverage of Cypriot football below the top league in the English language press, so sorry if these sound like daft questions.

It's two up and two down. This site is good for all countries and divisions...

You're right.
In First Division there is a top 6 for the championship title and the "next 6" in the relegation group. The 3 bottom teams from the relegation group will be relegated to the second division.
The champion team will play the Champions League and the second, third and the winner of the Cypriot Cup will play in the Europa League.
As for the Second Division, it's the same, the top three will play in the First Division next year and the last three in the third division. The same from second to third division.
