Standings FAQ

How are the 2026 J.League standings decided?

Teams are ranked by total points. The 2026 Centenary leagues have no draws: a win in 90 minutes is worth 3 points, a penalty-shootout win 2 points, a penalty-shootout loss 1 point, and a 90-minute defeat 0 points. Any match level after 90 minutes is settled by a penalty shootout.

What happens when teams are level on points?

Teams tied on points are separated first by goal difference, then by goals scored.

How do I read the recent form (last 5) column?

It shows each team's last five results, most recent first: W = win in 90 minutes, P = decided on penalties, L = defeat in 90 minutes. Sort by the form column to compare which teams are in good or poor form.
