[edit] Overview

The professional competitions shrunk from 18 to 16 clubs following last season's promotions and relegations' modifications. S.C. Beira-Mar and C.D. Aves were promoted to the Liga, and F.C. Penafiel, Rio Ave F.C., Vitória S.C. "de Guimarães" were relegated to the League of Honour.

In June 2006, C.F. Os Belenenses, that finished 15th last season, was scheduled to be relegated. However, the Lisbon team presented a complaint to the Portuguese League for Professional Football regarding the use of a non-registered player (Mateus) by 13th placed Gil Vicente F.C.. The penalty pretended by Belenenses would result in Gil Vicente being relegated in their place. This claim generated a series of appeals and controversial statements to the media. The decision has been taken in August 23 and made Belenenses stay in the BWINLIGA while Gil Vicente F.C. was relegated to the League of Honour.
