Sixteen teams take part in the league, each playing twice against all the other, once home and once away.

The first champions of the B Republican Football Group are Torpedo (Ruse) (North) and Spartak (Sofia) (South).

The championship started with 13 teams, because Lokomotiv (Plovdiv) and Belasitsa (Petrich) united with two teams from A Group - Lokomotiv with PFC Velbazhd Kyustendil and Belasitsa with PFC Hebar Pazardzhik.

That meant, that this was the end of professional football in the towns of Kyustendil and Pazardzhik.

16 teams participated in the league, each playing twice against all the other, once home and once away, with no play-offs.

The two teams that finished in second place in their group enter in a play-off for winning a place at the final play-off for promotion/relegation with the team that finished 14th in A Group.
