About the league

The Lithuania Championship, also known as the A Lyga, is the top division of Lithuanian football. Established in 1991, the league has a rich history, with teams competing for the championship title and a spot in European tournaments. Top teams like Žalgiris Vilnius, Sūduva Marijampolė, and Kauno Žalgiris have consistently dominated the league. The competition format typically consists of a double-round robin, where each team plays every other team twice, followed by a championship playoff. Notable achievements include Žalgiris Vilnius's multiple championship wins and Sūduva Marijampolė's participation in the UEFA Champions League and Europa League. The league is governed by the Lithuanian Football Federation and is broadcast locally, with a growing audience interested in Lithuanian football. While not as prominent as top European leagues, the Lithuania Championship provides exciting competition and a platform for local talent to shine.
