The 2022–23 Liga Portugal (also known as Liga Portugal Bwin[2] for sponsorship reasons) was the 89th season of the Primeira Liga, the top professional league for Portuguese association football clubs, and the second season under the current Liga Portugal title. This was the sixth Primeira Liga season to use video assistant referee (VAR).
FC Porto were the defending champions, having won their 30th title at the previous season. Rio Ave, Casa Pia and Chaves joined as the promoted clubs from the 2021–22 Liga Portugal 2 replacing Belenenses SAD, Tondela and Moreirense, which were relegated to 2022–23 Liga Portugal 2.
As the 2022 FIFA World Cup was held between 20 November and 18 December 2022 due to the climatic conditions of the host country Qatar, the league featured an extended pause during the season. As national team players had to be released by their clubs on 14 November 2022, the last Primeira Liga matchday before the break was scheduled for 13 November (matchday 13). The league resumed nine weeks later on 28 December.[3]
Benfica secured a record 38th league title after beating Santa Clara 3–0 on matchday 34.
