NOTES: a) Amstrig Riga are now known as Daugava Riga b) Vilan-D Daugavpils are now known as Dinaburg Daugavpils c) DAG Liepaja have united with FK Liepaja (1st div.) and are now known as FK Liepaja d) Lokomotive Daugavpils (1st div. runner up) will play in premier division instead of Olimpia Riga because of Olimpia's refusal. e) "RAF --> FK Universitate." The biggest latvian cars' manufacturer RAF refused its sponsorship of RAF Jelgava football club. New owner of the club is Latvian University and because of that the new name of the club is FK Universitate Riga. Obviously the club has reallocated from Elgava to Riga. f) During the playoff stage, FK Liepaja changed name to Baltika Liepaja.

Regulations (Basics)

Premier division's competition will proceed in 2 stages like in last season. In the 1st stage clubs will play twice each against other (total 18 rounds). In the 2nd stage 6 best clubs will again play twice each against other but other 4 clubs will play 4 times each against other (taking in account 1st stage's results) 10th club will be relegated to 1st division. 9th will play twice against 1st division's runner-up to stay in the premier division.
