But you can also look at player statistics or transfers.

The league, which can also be called the 1st Czech Football League, is the highest Czech football league. In this competition we will find 16 teams competing for the Chance LIGA cup and who will advance to the European Cups. Everyone plays each other in two rounds, i.e. twice (once on the home court, once on the away court). From the 2018/2019 season, the basic part, which has 30 rounds, is followed by the superstructure part, which decides the final order. The teams will be divided into 3 groups in the superstructure part as follows:

The top six teams from the regular season will advance to the title group, which is played in a round-robin format.

The teams in 7th to 10th place form the second group, they will compete in a two-round knockout (home/away) for placement. The overall winner can look forward to both a financial reward and a better commitment to the national cup.

The last six teams in the table after the regular season play each other in a single round for retention. The worst team will be relegated to the 2nd league, the second and third worst teams will challenge the second and third teams of the 2nd league in a playoff.

Historically, league names have changed. Since 1997, the competition has been named after the main sponsor. Between the seasons 1997/98 and 2013/14 it was called Gambrinus liga, between 2014/15 and 2015/16 Synot liga. The following year it was the ePojisteni.cz league and the following season the HET liga. And since the 2018/19 season, it is called FORTUNA:LIGA. The historically most successful club is the AC Sparta Prague team.
