Israeli Premier League Ranks 45th Globally Behind Leagues in Peru and Algeria

Translated & summarized from Mako by baba
The story · English

Following the conclusion of the 2022 World Cup, football leagues across Europe and beyond are preparing to resume, including Israel's Premier League. Ahead of the new season, data from Opta, a leading sports data company, reveals that the Israeli Premier League is currently ranked 45th worldwide. The second-tier Liga Leumit is placed even lower, at 126th globally.

Notably, leagues from Egypt, Peru, and Algeria rank higher than Israel's top league. Other leagues surpassing the Israeli Premier League include those from Hungary, Cyprus, South Korea, Chile, Mexico, Paraguay, and Ecuador. The global ranking list highlights the dominance of European leagues, with the English Premier League, German Bundesliga, Spain's La Liga, Italy's Serie A, and France's Ligue 1 occupying the top five positions.

This ranking provides context for the competitive standing of Israeli football on the international stage as the domestic season approaches. The full list of the top 50 leagues shows a diverse range of countries, reflecting the global nature of the sport and the varying levels of league strength worldwide.
