I see this as a positive.

Less games is a bit of a bummer, because watching football is fun, but players will be less exhausted, which should means more quality games and hopefully more offensively leaning teams due to the possibility of putting more efforts per games.

Less teams might lead to a tighter competition, which is fun for the intensity of the european/relegation races. As competition rises, it should force teams to improve faster to meet the challenge.
