This was the seventh Primeira Liga season to use video assistant referee (VAR).
Since Portugal dropped from sixth to seventh place in the UEFA association coefficient rankings at the end of 2022–23 season, only the two best-ranked teams can qualify for the UEFA Champions League (the champions enter directly into the group stage, and the runners-up enter the third qualifying round).
[2][3] On 5 May, Sporting CP were confirmed as champions with two matches to spare following Benfica's 2–0 away defeat to Famalicão, clinching the club's 20th league title and first since the 2020–21 season.
Moreirense, Farense (after a one and two years absence, respectively), and Estrela da Amadora (promoted for the first time in history in its current form founded in 2020 or after a fourteen-year absence if counting the club that dissolved in 2011 due to bankruptcy) were promoted from the 2022–23 Liga Portugal 2, replacing Marítimo, Paços de Ferreira, and Santa Clara (relegated after thirty-eight, four, and five years on the top flight, respectively).
This league season marked the first time since 1984–85 to have no teams from the Azores or Madeira islands in the top-flight.
