WHAT IS THE AZERBAIJAN FIRST DIVISION?
The Azerbaijan First Division or the Azərbaycan Birinci Divizionu in Azerbaijani is the second-highest professional division in the Azerbaijani football league system. The competition is organized by the Association of Football Federations of Azerbaijan (AFFA).
Azerbaijan First Division
Because of the dissolution of the Soviet Union, all Azerbaijan teams of the former Soviet Premier Division and Soviet First Division conformed to a single Azerbaijan Premier League. That meant the new second level of Azerbaijan football would remain regionalized. For the first two seasons, three regional groups defined the second tier. Until 1994, the single table in use nowadays began to be used.
The Birinci Dasta often consists of from 10 to 14 clubs. They play each other in a two-legged format. The games are directly broadcasted on CBC Sport.
