The English Premier League was formed as the FA Premier League on 20 February 1992 following the decision of clubs in the Football League First Division to break away from the Football League, founded in 1888, and take advantage of a lucrative television rights deal.
The English Premier League is the highest level of the English football league system. Contested by 20 clubs, it operates on a system of promotion and relegation with the Championship. The seasons run from August to May with each team playing 38 matches (playing each other home and away).
The Premier League is the most-watched sports league in the world, broadcast in about 212 territories to about 643 million homes and a potential TV audience of about 4.7 billion people. Up to forty-nine clubs have competed since the inception of the Premier League in 1992. Among those that have have won the title are: Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester City, Blackburn Rovers, and Leicester City.
There are 20 clubs in the Premier League. During the course of a season (from August to May) each club plays the others twice (a double round-robin system), once at their home stadium and once at that of their opponents', for 38 games. Teams receive three points for a win and one point for a draw. No points are awarded for a loss. Teams are ranked by total points, then goal difference, and then goals scored. If still equal, teams are deemed to occupy the same position. If there is a tie for the championship, for relegation, or for qualification to other competitions, a play-off match at a neutral venue decides rank.Non-English clubs from Wales also compete in the English football system. One of these, Swansea City, has played in the Premier League since the 2011–12 season before getting relegated at the end of 2017-18 season. Cardiff City also played in the Premier League in the 2013–14 season and they will be playing in the 2018-19 season.
