About the League

What Is the English Premier League?

The English Premier League is the top tier of English football and widely regarded as the most competitive and entertaining domestic league in the world. Founded in 1992, the Premier League has grown into a global sporting phenomenon, attracting the best players, managers, and fans from every corner of the planet.

The league operates on a promotion and relegation system — the bottom three clubs are relegated to the EFL Championship each season, replaced by three promoted sides. This system keeps every match meaningful, from the title race at the top to the survival fight at the bottom. For the 2025-26 season, Burnley, Leeds United, and Sunderland were promoted, replacing relegated Southampton, Leicester City, and Ipswich Town.
