The Portuguese football leagues are divided into divisions (''divisões'', singular - ''divisão''). The top teams play in the Primeira Liga, named NOS for sponsorship reasons but for the next year is called BwinLiga for the same reason. In each division, with rare exceptions, a team plays all other teams twice, once at home and once away. One can divide the competitions in professional and non-professional. The Portuguese league and federation teams compete in Europe under UEFA, most notably in the UEFA Champions League, but also in the UEFA Cup, in the extinct Cup Winners' Cup and sometimes in the UEFA Intertoto Cup, European Super Cup and the extinct UEFA/Conmebol Intercontinental Cup (Toyota Cup). They can also compete in the FIFA Club World Cup, although until today no Portuguese team reached this recent competition. The teams also compete in a domestic cup competition each year, called Cup of Portugal (''Taça de Portugal'') and the winners play against the champions in the SuperCup Cândido de Oliveira. ==Current hierarchical divisional breakdowns== *Professional * *Primeira Liga - First Division (16 teams) * *Segunda Liga - Second Division (22 teams) *Non-professional * *Campeonato Nacional de Seniores - Third Division (80 teams) * *Portuguese District First Levels - Fourth Division (312 teams) * *Portuguese District Second Levels - Fifth Division (318 teams) * *Portuguese District Third Levels - Sixth Division (111 teams) * *Portuguese District Fourth Levels - Seventh Division (36 teams) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of football clubs in Portugal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
