Teams

A total of 16 teams will contest the league, including 13 sides from the 2015–16 season and three promoted from the 2015–16 Ligue 2. AS Gabès was the first to obtain promotion, followed by Olympique Béja and finally US Tataouine. The three teams replaced EGS Gafsa, AS Kasserine and Stade Tunisien who were relegated to 2016–17 Tunisian Ligue 2.
The teams are drawn in two groups of 8 each. At the end of the first part of the season, the first 3 will qualify to the Championship Group, the 4th to 7th will contest the Relegation Group and the 8th of each group will be relegated to the Ligue 2.[2] Étoile du Sahel are the defending champions from the 2015–16 season.
