1990 Soviet First League was part of the Soviet football competition in the second league division. With the ongoing fall of the Soviet Union some clubs left the Soviet competitions and the league was reduced.

Prior to the start of the season all Georgian clubs (with the exception of Dinamo Sukhumi, a majority-Russian club) withdrew from Soviet competitions. The league left two clubs, FC Torpedo Kutaisi and FC Dinamo Batumi. Because of that the league was reduced to 20 as compared to the previous season of 22 participants.

Notes:

(13th team of the Top League and 4th team of the First League)

Lokomotiv Moscow won the promotion on 3–2 aggregate
