The Balkan Super League has announced it's 3rd season will have 14 clubs from 8 countries(!!!), across 2 divisions.
Of particular note is the FIVE teams from Belgrade alone.
Has me wondering, can anyone give a thorough rundown of the Serbian Leagues? Clear information can be difficult to find.
The wikipedia pages are 7 years out of date. And the website is obviously in Serbian.
What I can figure out:
There's a
Serbian Championship
Serbian Super League
and Super Cup Serbia
What's the difference? What are the formats? What are the teams?
What I can figure out..
The Super Cup is an annual match between the 2 biggest clubs, Red Star Belgrade and Partisan Belgrade.
The Serbian Championship has 9 teams which play off in 3 groups to enter the Serbian Super League. Group A contains Red Star, Partisan, Dorcol and go through automatically. The remaining 6 teams in Groups B and C play off for the 4th spot in the top tier.
The 5 that miss out play in the 2nd League or B League.
Last year's top League was won by Red Star over Partisan, Dorcol and Nis.
B League features 3 more Belgrade teams (Red Kangaroo, Stari Grad, New Belgrade) and 2 more regional city teams (Paracin, Leskovac).
The Clubs listing on their website shows a lot more than 9 clubs but how they fit in im not sure.
There seems to be some movement in and out of the league among the lower places teams, unclear how or why.
