Bahrain Club and A’ali have both retained their places in next season’s Nasser bin Hamad Bahrain Premier Football League.
The two sides defended their spots in the kingdom's top flight after finishing first and second, respectively, in the four-team play-off competition for promotion or relegation.
Bahrain Club topped the tournament table after posting a 2-1 victory over Isa Town in their concluding fixture this evening, played at Khalifa Sports City Stadium in Isa Town. A’ali, meanwhile, stunned Al Hala 2-1 at the National Stadium in Riffa.
A'ali made it through via the head-to-head rule on the tie-break, after drawing level with Hala on four points in the standings.
Isa Town and Hala will thus return to the kingdom’s second division for the 2025-26 national campaign.
