Albania - 2017/18 Kategoria Superiore

The Albanian Superliga (Albanian: Kategoria Superiore) is a professional league for men's association footballclubs. At the top of the Albanian football league system, it is the country's primary football competition. It is contested by 10 clubs, and operates on a system of promotion and relegation with the Albanian First Division. Seasons run from August to May, with teams playing 36 matches each (playing each team in the league four times, twice at home and twice away).

The 2017–18 Albanian Superliga is the 79th official season, or 82nd season of top-tier football in Albania  and the 18th season under the name Kategoria Superiore. The season began on 9 September 2017 and will end on 18 May 2018. Title record-holders KF Tirana will not be among the best teams for the very first time since competition's foundation. Kukësi are the defending champions.

The winners of this season's Superliga will earn a place in the first qualifying round of the 2018-19 Champions League, with the second and third placed clubs earning a place in the first qualifying round of the 2018-19 Europa League.
