Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the top 12 teams after round 23 played in Valencia to win the league. The teams were divided into two groups of six, playing every team in their group once. The top two teams per group qualified for the semifinals. From semifinals onwards, the teams played a single-elimination tournament consisting of two rounds. A total of 33 matches were played within two weeks.[1]

Qualifying

Initially, eight teams would qualify for the playoffs. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the playoffs were expanded to 12 teams after the early ending of the regular season.
