About Primeira Liga

Established in 1934, the Primeira Liga (English: Premier League), also known as Liga Portugal Bwin due to its sponsoring partner, is the peak of Portuguese football. This summit was reached with a union between two regional championships from Lisbon and Porto. As such, it has become one of the most esteemed leagues worldwide for soccer enthusiasts ever since! The inaugural edition had ten teams, four from Lisbon and six from Porto. Benfica is the most successful club in Primeira Liga history. Portugal's top-flight football competition was founded in 1934 as the Campeonato de Portugal. In 1938, it was renamed the Primeira Liga. The Primeira Liga is contested by 18 teams, with the two lowest-ranked teams relegated to the Segunda Liga and replaced by the top-two finishers in that division.
