The 2021 J1 League, also known as the 2021 Meiji Yasuda J1 League (Japanese: 2021 明治安田生命J1リーグ, Hepburn: 2021 Meiji Yasuda Seimei J1 Rīgu) for sponsorship reasons, is the 29th season of the J1 League, the top Japanese professional league for association football clubs, since its establishment in 1993. The league began on 26 February and scheduled to end on 4 December 2021.
Changes from the previous season[]
Kawasaki Frontale won their third title in 2020, clinching the title with four games to play after a 5–0 home win against runners-up Gamba Osaka.[2]
There were no teams relegated last season due to impacts related to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] Instead, four relegation places will apply for the current season, reducing the total number of teams from 20 to 18.[4]
Two teams were promoted from the 2020 J2 League: Tokushima Vortis won the title and clinched a second promotion to J1 (the first came in 2013), while Avispa Fukuoka came second, returning to J1 after five seasons.[5]
