The pre-season was severely affected by license revocations to two teams, which eventually resulted in a later than originally scheduled begin date and an increase of scheduled matches from 26 to 33 per team. Teams The league was originally supposed to have 14 teams, but AC Oulu was refused a license due to club's bad economic situation and Tampere United was excluded from every official competition of Football Association of Finland due to breaking the rules of the association, and the league will therefore be played with only 12 teams.http://www.veikkausliiga.com/News.aspx?type=1&ID=42557 Palloliiton liittohallitus ei käsittele AC Oulun lisenssihakemusta 7 March 2011 https://web.archive.org/web/20110717191929/http://www.veikkausliiga.com/News.aspx?type=1&ID=42557 17 July 2011 deadhttp://www.palloliitto.fi/viestinta/?num=185083 Tampere Unitedia koskevat päätökset 27 April 2011 https://web.archive.org/web/20110502092906/http://www.palloliitto.fi/viestinta/?num=185083 2 May 2011 dead AC Oulu was, however, obtained a license for Ykkönen, where it will play this season.
