Malta Premier League Clubs Vote to Retain Current Format for Five More Seasons

The Malta Premier League has confirmed that the current VBET Malta Premier format will remain in place for a further five seasons, starting from the 2027/28 campaign, following a vote among its member clubs.

The decision was taken through a secret ballot, with 11 of the 12 clubs voting in favour of retaining the existing competition structure, while only one club opposed the proposal.

The overwhelming majority reflects strong support among participating clubs for maintaining continuity in Malta’s top-flight football competition.

During the same meeting, clubs were also asked to vote on a proposal to introduce two-legged fixtures for both the final and relegation play-offs.

However, the proposal failed to secure the necessary majority, with voting ending in a 6-6 draw.

Consequently, both the final and relegation play-offs will continue to be contested over a single match, preserving the existing system.

The decision provides clarity regarding the league’s structure for the coming years, allowing clubs to plan ahead with greater certainty.

With the current format now secured for another five seasons, the Malta Premier League will continue operating under its established competition system, maintaining the structure familiar to clubs, players and supporters.
