Hong Kong XI is a team which represents Hong Kong to particpate in exhibitional matches, mainly Carlsberg Cup during the Chinese New Year. Competitive matches such as World Cup Qualifiers are played by the Hong Kong national football team.

The team is formed by the top players in Hong Kong First Division League. Both Hong Kong and foreign players (including those from mainland China) can be included in the team. However, as the quality of local players is usually lower, it has been often that most of the outfield players are foreigners.

In recent years, HKFA chooses the Hong Kong national football team to participate in matches which are previously played by Hong Kong XI, especially the Carlsberg Cup. Therefore, Hong Kong XI has not formed a squad for a few years.
