The 2021–22 Slovak First Football League was the 29th season of first-tier football league in Slovakia since its establishment in 1993.

Slovan Bratislava were the defending champions for the third successive year, after picking up the second consecutive domestic double in the previous season. Slovan successfully retained their league title, winning a record-breaking fourth title in a row and 12th overall since the competition was established in 1993.

Teams

Twelve teams competed in the league – the top ten teams from the previous season, the relegation play-offs winner and the one team promoted from the 2. Liga, Tatran Liptovský Mikuláš, who were promoted to the top flight for the first time. Nitra (relegated after four years in the top flight) had been relegated to 3. Liga.
