Hong Kong League Cup

Hong Kong Football Association League Cup is an annual football competition contested by clubs in the top-tier Hong Kong domestic football league. The cup had been abolished several times before being relaunched in a new format for the 2025–26 season.

Format

All teams in the Hong Kong First Division League or Hong Kong Premier League are divided into 2 groups in the first stage. Each team plays against all other teams in the group once. The top two teams in each group qualify for the semi-finals.
In the semi-finals, the first team in Group A plays against the second team in Group B while the first team in Group B plays against the second team in Group A.
The winners of the semi-finals enter the final, which is usually held in Hong Kong Stadium or Mong Kok Stadium.

All teams in the Hong Kong Premier League enter the competition, with no limitation on foreign players.
