This was decided at the latest league meeting ahead of the season final stages.
The 20 member clubs met on Thursday to discuss a range of measures building towards the planned return to action later this month and agreed to the increment in substitution to five.
This is in line with the temporary law amendment made by the International Football Association Board last month.
Shareholders also approved for clubs to increase the maximum number of substitute players on the bench from seven to nine for the rest of the 2019/20 season.
