Australia. A League stands for the A-League Men, Australia's men's championship, organised by the Australian Professional Leagues. Its 2026-27 edition brings together 12 clubs: ten based in Australia and two in New Zealand, Auckland FC and Wellington Phoenix. Play began on 16 October 2026, and the Grand Final, scheduled for the first weekend of June 2027, brings it to a close. The exact kick-off time is shown on every entry in the line.
26 games each, then a finals series for the top six
The regular season gives every club 26 games: 22 in the home-and-away schedule and four added fixtures, for 156 matches over 28 matchweeks. Nobody is relegated and nobody is promoted. The club that tops the table is named Premiers and lifts the Premiers' Plate, while the Champions are the winners of the Grand Final, so two separate honours are at stake. The top six go into the Finals Series: first and second wait for the semi-finals, third hosts sixth and fourth hosts fifth in one-off elimination finals.
