The Greek Super League, officially known as the Super League Greece, is the top professional football division in the Greek football league system. It was founded in 2006, replacing the Alpha Ethniki as the top tier of Greek football. The league consists of 14 teams that compete annually for the championship title.
Some of the most successful clubs in Greek Super League history include Olympiacos, Panathinaikos, AEK Athens, and PAOK. Olympiacos holds the record for the most championship titles, having won the league multiple times since its inception. The league operates on a system of promotion and relegation with the Football League, the second tier of Greek football.
The Greek Super League season typically runs from August to May, with each team playing 26 matches in the regular season. The top six teams then advance to the championship playoff round, while the bottom eight teams compete in the relegation playoff round. The league has produced many talented players who have gone on to succeed in major European leagues. |
