Remind that in the case of a tie on points, the break-even ranking applies, according to the following criteria in order of consideration in the case of a further tie: 1) points in direct clashes, 2) goal difference in direct clashes, 3) overall goal difference, 4) goals scored overall. In the remote case of an absolute tie in all criteria, a draw will be made in the presence of delegates of the clubs concerned.
