Czech First League
Season 2018–19

The 2018–19 Czech First League, known as the Fortuna liga for sponsorship reasons, is the 26th season of the Czech Republic's top-tier football league. The defending champions are Viktoria Plzeň, who won their fifth Czech title the previous season.[1] The season is the first with a new league structure in which 16 clubs play each other home and away, until the league is split up in championship, Europa League and relegation groups.[2]
