Leagues with Championsip/Relegation round

Some football(soccer) leagues have a regular season and a championship/relegation round. For example the Austrian Bundesliga (https://www.thesportsdb.com/season.php?l=4621&s=2022-2023) has 22 matchdays in regular season and afterwards goes into Championship and Relegation round.

At this league the regular season is over at the moment. In the API there is no way how I could recognize if a match is from regular season or already the championship/relegation round. The matchday just starts after the regular season again at r=01. This brings a lot of problems for me. Is there a way I could see currently if this is a match from regular season or championship/relegation round? If not, could you please add a mechanism/attribute where this is marked?

I don't see how that's feasible for so many different leagues which employ that kind of system in their own ways.

Try adding something to your code that if the round number is smaller than the last then the league has split to identify, or past a certain date, or after so many matches have been played, quite a few ways to identify it.
