"The final round of the season is scheduled for May 28, giving players nearly 11 weeks before the next season kicks off. The season schedule returns to normal following the Covid-19 pandemic and the FIFA World Cup 2022, which provided disruption during the previous three seasons," the league said.

"In keeping with commitments made to clubs this season to address the congested schedule across Christmas and New Year, no two rounds in this period will take place within 48 hours of each other," the league added.
