The 2017–18 Nemzeti Bajnokság I, also known as NB I, is going to be the 119th season of top-tier football in Hungary. The league is officially named OTP Bank Liga for sponsorship reasons. Honvéd are the defending champions having won their fourteenth Hungarian championship last season. As in the previous season, 12 teams compete for the championship title, playing 33 rounds. The fixtures were published on 14 July 2017.
On 20 June 2017, the rounds were drawn by the Hungarian Football Federation. The 33 rounds will be divided into two parts. 19 rounds will be played in 2017 and the remaining 14 in 2018.[2]
Teams
MTK and Gyirmót finished the 2016–17 Nemzeti Bajnokság I in the last two places and thus were relegated to NB II division.
