The 2024–25 Liga Portugal (also known as Liga Portugal Betclic[1] for sponsorship reasons) is the 91st season of the Primeira Liga, the top professional league for Portuguese association football clubs and the fourth season under the current Liga Portugal title. This is the eighth Primeira Liga season to use video assistant referee (VAR). Sporting CP are the defending champions, having won their 20th title the previous season.
Santa Clara (after one-year absence), Nacional (after three years absence) and AVS (promoted for the first time in their history), were promoted from the 2023–24 Liga Portugal 2, replacing Vizela, Chaves and Portimonense (relegated after three, two and seven years on the top flight, respectively).
