The 2020–21 Primera División Femenina de Fútbol was the 33rd edition of Spain's highest women's football league, the 20th since the inception of the Superliga Femenina. The league was scheduled to start on 5 September 2020 and to finish on 27 June 2021,[1] however, the start date was delayed to 3 October.[2]
Barcelona were the defending champions after the previous season ended after 21 games due to COVID-19 pandemic in Spain. They retained their title emphatically, dropping only 3 points all season (a defeat by Atlético Madrid after already being declared champions), and also won the Copa de la Reina and UEFA Women's Champions League competitions.[3]
