The 2012–13 Liga I will be the ninety-fifth season of Liga I, the top-level football league of Romania. The season will start on 21 July 2012 and will end on 29 May 2013.[1] The defending champions are CFR Cluj.
Since Romania dropped from fourteenth to 22nd place in the UEFA association coefficient rankings at the end of the 2011–12 season,[2] the league has lost its second UEFA Champions League berth. Further, all teams who will qualify for a European competition via league placement at the end of this season will have to enter these a round earlier as in the season before. The champions will enter the second qualifying round of the 2013–14 UEFA Champions League, while the second- and third-placed teams will begin at the second and first qualifying rounds, respectively, of the 2013–14 UEFA Europa League. In addition, the winners of the 2012–13 Romanian Cup will also start in the second qualifying round of the Europa League, two rounds earlier than before.
Teams
Four teams from the 2011–12 season were relegated to their respective 2012–13 Liga II division, Târgu Mureș, Mioveni, Voința Sibiu, and Sportul Studențesc.
Four teams, two from each division, were promoted from 2011–12 Liga II. From the East Division, Iaşi and Viitorul Constanța gained the access because they finished first and second in the standings. From Seria II, Politehnica Timişoara won their promotion place in the field, but they didn't receive their licence for the first league, so the Romanian Football Federation decided that the third team in the division should promote instead.[3]
