Primeira Liga 2006/07

The 2007/08 Primeira Liga (officially bwinLIGA) was the 74th season of the Portuguese top division in men's football. It started on August 17, 2007 and ended on May 11, 2008.

This season, FC Porto secured the 23rd championship in the club's history and the third title in a row five match days before the end of the season. In terms of sport, FC Paços de Ferreira and União Leiria relegated to the second division . The verdicts in the bribery scandal from the 2003/04 season had a direct impact on this season, with FC Porto deducted six points and União Leiria three points, the president of FC Porto, Pinto da Costa , was suspended for two years and Boavista Porto sentenced to relegation to the Segunda League . FC Porto should also not participate in the 2008/09 UEFA Champions League and should move up the next best-placed clubs. However, this decision has been revised.
