Luxembourg - 2017/18 National Division

The National Division is the highest football league in Luxembourg. Until 2011, it was known as the BGL Ligue, after the Luxembourg Football Federation managed to seal a sponsorship deal with Fortis. Before 2006, it contained twelve teams, but it expanded to fourteen for the 2006–07 season, and it has maintained this number since. The current champions are F91 Dudelange.




The 2017–18 Luxembourg National Division is the 104th season of top-flight football in Luxembourg. The season began on 4 August 2017 and is scheduled to conclude on 19 May 2018. F91 Dudelange are the defending champions from the previous season.

The bottom two teams from the previous season, Rumelange and UN Käerjéng 97, were relegated to the 2017–18 Luxembourg Division of Honour. They were replaced by Esch and Rodange 91, champions and runners-up respectively of the 2016–17 Luxembourg Division of Honour.
In addition, the third-placed team from the previous season's Division of Honour, Hostert, defeated the third-from-bottom top-flight team, Jeunesse Canach, in a play-off to seal their top-flight spot for 2017–18.


Each team plays every other team in the league home-and-away for a total of 26 matches played each.
