About Czech First League
The Czech First League, known as the Fortuna Liga for sponsorship reasons, is the top professional soccer league in the Czech Republic. It's a 16-team competition that runs from July through May. The league is in the final stretch, with the championship round coming up next month.
Top teams
Slavia Prague and Sparta Prague are the two giants. Their rivalry is called the Prague Derby, and it's the biggest game in the country. These two clubs dominate the title race most years. Viktoria Plzeň is the third power — they've won multiple titles in the last decade and are always in the mix. Slovácko, Baník Ostrava, and Bohemians Prague round out the competitive middle of the pack. The league is top-heavy, but the championship playoff format keeps things interesting.
Format
The league uses a split format. All 16 teams play each other twice in the regular season. Then the top six go into the championship round, carrying over their points. The bottom ten split into two relegation groups. The winner of the championship round takes the title. The bottom two teams go down to the second division. The format is designed to eliminate dead rubbers and keep the season competitive until the end.
Viewership
The Fortuna Liga pulls around 5 million viewers annually. The numbers are strongest in the Czech Republic and among the Czech diaspora in Europe, North America, and Australia. The Prague Derby between Slavia and Sparta is the biggest TV draw — those games get the highest ratings. The championship round also draws solid numbers. The league doesn't have a massive global following, but it's a staple for Czech soccer fans.
