The English Premier League (EPL) is the top tier of professional football (soccer) in England. Established in 1992, it represents the highest level of competition in English football, featuring 20 clubs that compete annually. The league operates on a system of promotion and relegation, meaning the lowest-performing teams can drop to the lower division, the English Football League Championship, while the best teams from that division can be promoted to the Premier League.
Matches are typically played from August to May, with each team facing every other team twice, once at home and once away, for a total of 38 matches per team in a season. Points are awarded based on match outcomes: three points for a win, one point for a draw, and none for a loss. The team with the highest points total at the end of the season is crowned the champion.
The EPL is renowned for its competitiveness and has a significant global television following, contributing to its status as one of the most popular and lucrative football leagues worldwide. It showcases a diverse array of talent, attracting players and coaches from around the globe.
