The Bulgarian First League, officially known as the First Professional Football League and currently sponsored as the efbet League, is the top division of Bulgarian football. It is the highest level of club competition in the country, where historic teams like CSKA Sofia, Levski Sofia, and Ludogorets Razgrad compete for supremacy. The league typically features 14 teams playing a regular season followed by a championship playoff group and a relegation group, ensuring competitive intensity until the final matchday. Its main characteristic in recent years has been the dominance of Ludogorets, which has won multiple consecutive titles and raised the league's profile in European competitions. The league serves as the bedrock for the Bulgarian national team. The primary honor is winning the league championship, with additional awards for best player, top scorer, and best young talent.
