The 1974–75 Yugoslav First League season was the 29th season of the First Federal League of Yugoslavia (Croatian: Prva savezna liga, Serbian: Прва савезна лига, Slovenian: Prva zvezna liga), the top level association football competition of SFR Yugoslavia, since its establishment in 1946.
Over the subsequent seasons, Ivić would go on to win the 1976 cup and 1978–79 championship with Hajduk, becoming the most successful manager in club's history.
Strikers Boško Đorđević of Partizan and Dušan Savić of Red Star shared the title of top goalscorer with 20 goals each.
Both players topped the scoring table for the first time in their careers, with Savić repeating the achievement in the 1978–79 season.
NK Rijeka would go on to remain in top flight until the 1990–91 season, when Croatian and Slovenian clubs abandoned the Yugoslav league amid the breakup of Yugoslavia.
