The LOI is one of the most exciting leagues when it is given a chance to excel, and many probably overlook the division due to its limited access outside of Ireland. However, it is definitely something to keep an extra eye on.
With only 10 teams in the league, there is certainly an element of intrigue to the LOI, adding an extra level of tightness to the title race, with the contending teams normally only separated by a few points.
Of course, with a lack of money in the league, the quality may be slightly worse than some of Europe's best options. However, it remains a division with a high level of entertainment when given a chance.
At the time of writing, Virgin Media and Premier Sports co-own the rights for the LOI in the United Kingdom. Furthermore, subscribing to LOITV allows customers to watch games in the UK. The app is the official streaming app for UK viewers.
League table rules: Unlike most divisions in Europe, the LOI is only made up of 10 teams per season, which makes things much closer in the standings, thus making it a bit more entertaining. The last-placed team is immediately relegated at the end of the season, while the 9th-placed team has to take part in a play-off game for survival.
Kick-off times: Interestingly, most LOI games take place on Friday and Monday evenings, despite formerly taking place on a Sunday afternoon (with many clubs not having access to floodlights). It is very rare for games to actually take place on Saturdays or Sundays.
Four instead of two: Most leagues in Europe will see teams play each other two times per season. With the LOI, though, this is not possible as there are too few teams. So, to counter this, the teams play each other four times, filling the calendar.
Calendar-year schedule: Speaking of the calendar, rather than playing games from summer to summer, the Irish League plays the league through the calendar year. In other words, as most leagues wrap up for the summer, the LOI continues.
