SK Slavia Prague are the current title holders and defending champions for the 2021/22 campaign and the team have already made a strong start to their season.
The 2021/22 season has returned to featuring 16 teams competing instead of the 18 teams that featured last season. This meant that three teams were relegated to the Czech National Football League and only one team promoted to the First League for the 2021/22 season.
The 16 teams competing this season include reigning champions Slavia Prague and fierce rivals Sparta Prague. Due to the recent changes, the only team to be promoted to the First League was FC Hradec Králové after they took the 2020/21 FNL title. Changes to the layout of the league meant that 3 teams were relegated to the lower FNL for the 2021/22 season. Slezský FC Opava finished the 2020/21 season at the bottom of the table after suffering 23 losses. FK Příbram and FC Zbrojovka Brno, finishing in 17th and 16th respectively and were also relegated.

Sparta Prague finished behind Slavia Prague in 2nd position as they also qualified for the Champions League. FK Jablonec had an excellent season and managed to finish in 3rd position as they qualified for the Europa League qualifying rounds. FC Slovácko and Viktoria Plzeň qualified for the inaugural UEFA Europa Conference League qualifying rounds as they finished in 4th and 5th respectively. The middle of the table was very close and quite compact, with positions being taken right down to the wire.
Notable Transfers
Slavia Prague have made a number of noteworthy transfers, both incoming and outgoing. The squad has been developed in the defensive and holding areas of the pitch through the introduction of midfielder Mads Emil Madsen and centre-back Aiham Ousou. Slavia Prague also sold winger Abdallah Sima to Brighton as well as centre-back David Zima who joined Serie A Torino. Slavia Prague have coped well with departures in the recent past and have a proven track record with regards to recruitment.
Their most likely rivals for the title this year, Sparta Prague have also made attempts to expand the depth of their squad through the arrivals of centre-back David Hancko from Fiorentina and Danish left-back Casper Höjer. In addition, Benjamin Tetteh and Matej Poulkrab arrived up front to compensate for the notable departure of Adriel Ba Loua to Lech Poznan.

Which Teams are Favourites to Win Czech First League 2022/23
Slavia Prague
Slavia Prague are the strong favourites to win the Czech First League once again for the 2021/22 season. Recently, they have consistently produced a lot of good players and the squad does have potential to become increasingly competitive in Europe as well as domestically. With their recent signings, Slavia Prague are likely to be the front-runners for the Czech top-flight title once again this campaign.
Sparta Prague
Sparta Prague have already established themselves as one of the most successful teams in the Czech First League with a total of 12 title wins. Although they came in 2nd to Slavia Prague last year, they could challenge their bitter rivals and have proved to be relatively consistent as European regulars. Sparta Prague have made a number of signings during the transfer window, which will no doubt put them in good stead to compete this year.
FC Viktoria Plzeň
Viktoria Plzeň had an underwhelming 2020/21 campaign as they finished the previous season in 5th position and qualified for the Europa Conference League. Over the course of 34 matches played last season, Viktoria Plzeň bagged 17 wins and 7 draws, ending their year on 58 points, just behind 4th place FC Slovácko. Viktoria Plzeň have made a good start to their 2021/22 season and will expect to improve on last season’s finish.
FK Jablonec
FK Jablonec made an excellent impression last season as they finished in 3rd position and qualified for the UEFA Europa League. After 34 matches played, Jablonec managed 21 wins and 6 draws and will surely be looking to replicate their success this time around. However, they have made a slow start to their 2021/22 campaign and competing for the title looks to be beyond them.
Which Teams are in Danger of Relegation?
FC Slovan Liberec
Despite having a fairly respectable 2020/21 season as they finished 6th in the table, FC Slovan Liberec have started poorly and are struggling as they now sit in the bottom 3 of the First League. Slovan Liberec have already experienced a massive loss at home to Sparta Prague earlier in the season as they conceded 5 goals without reply. There is a possibility that Slovan Liberec will be fighting to remain in the top-flight division if they can’t run their worrying early-season form around.
FK Teplice
FK Teplice just scraped by during the 2020/21 campaign as they managed to stay in the First League despite a very real relegation scare. Teplice has had a rocky start to this year as they currently sit at the very bottom of the table at the time of writing. Teplice will need to find their groove and commit to damage control if they want to avoid the relegation play-offs.
MFK Karvina
MFK Karvina is another team that appears to be having a tough time at the start of the new 2021/22 season. Although the team finished in a mid-table position last campaign, they are only just ahead of relegation rivals Teplice in the First League table. Karvina are likely to be fighting it out to stay up by the end of the season having failed to notably improve on their squad over the summer.
First League players to keep an eye on this season
Ivan Schranz
The former centre-forward for Jablonec has since signed for Slavia Prague in 2021 and is already having a prominent goal-scoring impact for his new club. Schranz has bagged 6 goals, as well as 2 assists so far this season. In only his second game for Slavia Prague against Teplice earlier in the season, Schranz scored a hat-trick as they won 3-1. Schranz finished the 2020/21 season for Jablonec with 13 goals, coming in 4th in the top scorer table, just 2 goals away from the top spot.
Martin Hala
Right midfielder for FK Sigma Olomouc Martin Hala has started off the 2021/22 season very well as he currently sits at the top of the goalscorer’s table. There is still a long way to go, but his early lead puts him in a strong position to build from for the remainder of the season.
Adam Hlozek
The young centre-forward for Sparta Prague had an astonishing goal scoring season last year as he finished at the top of the table with 15 goals alongside Jan Kuchta. Adam Hlozek is one of the favourites to bet on for top goalscorer again this season as he already has three goals to his name in the early stages.
Jan Kuchta
After a short spell away from the club, the Czech forward Jan Kuchta returned to Slavia Prague. Last season he was joint top goalscorer in the league as he finished the season with 15 goals. Kuchta could potentially be a challenger for the top spot yet again this time around as Slavia Prague will surely score big again.
