The play-offs for an additional Champions League spot were conducted in a home and away round robin format. Its participants have entered the mini-league with a number of bonus points based on their regular season record. Every team had the number of points earned by the fifth-placed team subtracted from its own amount of points. The result was then divided through five and rounded to the nearest whole number to determine the amount of bonus points.
