The 2024 Philippines Football League will be the sixth season of Philippines Football League (PFL), the professional football league of the Philippines. The PFL was previously under the sponsorship title of Qatar Airways. Kaya–Iloilo are the defending champions.
Format changes
Philippine Football Federation and Liga Futbol Inc. decided on shifting the season back to an intra-year format, starting in February. Due to the sudden withdrawals of Azkals Development Team and United City at the tail-end of the previous season, the league will be looking to increase number of teams from current 5 to a number ranging up to 16, the highest ever in the PFL.[1]
Every PFL season since 2018 consisted of a round-robin format after which the table topper would be crowned champions, but this season would mark the first change in the league format since 2017, with each team playing other twice before a second round would split the league table into two, where teams would play the teams in their bracket once more. After the conclusion of those matches, the top eight teams overall would advance to a final series consisting of two-legged quarter- and semi-final ties, after which a champion would be crowned in the final.
Though clubs may still play home and away matches, the league would also use a "hybrid home-and-away format", which will see more matches played at centralized venues to alleviate costs.[1]
Teams
Five teams from the previous season confirmed its participation, alongside former participants Davao Aguilas and Loyola (formerly competing as Meralco Manila) who expressed their commitment to the upcoming season in November and December 2023, respectively.[2][3] Don Bosco Garelli, a team that participated in the Copa, and Manila Montet also confirmed their participation in December. The league initially planned to expand to a number of 12 teams and invited all the other non-UAAP teams, but due to the overwhelming demand plans are being made for a 16-team league instead.[4]
Stadiums and locations
The league will be played in a hybrid home and away format, with some teams choosing to have temporary stadiums to cut down costs. Davao Aguilas, who are based in Tagum, are currently playing in the University of Makati Stadium.Шаблон:Citation needed Manila Montet, who are based in Manila, have chosen Rizal Memorial Stadium as their home venue.[5] Don Bosco Garelli and Loyola, two more teams joining the league, have not announced their home stadiums yet.Шаблон:Citation needed
