The Armenian Premier League (Armenian: ) is the top football competition in Armenia. From 1936 to 1991, the competition was held as a regional tournament within the USSR. After independence, the Football Federation of Armenia has been the unit in charge. Over the years, the league has evolved into a small league consisting of nine teams. The winner of the league is awarded a spot in the first qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League.
The FFA decided to increase the Premier League participants from 9 up to 10 teams in the upcoming season (2019-20).[1]
