It is yet to be determined if the 2021 season will be still held under a bubble format, like in the previous season due to the prevailing COVID-19 pandemic situation.[1] The league's cup tournament, the Copa Paulino Alcantara will be organized in April prior to the start of the league after it was not held in 2020, also due to the pandemic.[2]

The 2021 season is planned to commence as early as June[2] with two or three potential expansion clubs.[1]

Interim coach
