In a 14-team league spanning 26 weeks, each pair of teams meets twice. The first matchup occurs between weeks 1 and 13, and the second between weeks 14 and 26, with teams switching home and away roles.
Constraints include:
- Teams A and B cannot play at home in the same week.
- Team C must play away in weeks 6, 7, 17, and 18.
- In weeks 1-13 and 14-26, teams play either 6 or 7 home matches.
- In the first two and last two weeks, teams alternate between home and away matches.
- Teams starting at home end the season away, and vice versa.
- Within every set of 6 consecutive rounds, a given matchup occurs only once.
- No team can play three consecutive home or away matches.
The goal is to find a solution minimizing instances of back-to-back home or away matches.
