The 2013–14 Maltese Premier League was the 99th season of the Maltese Premier League, the top-tier football league in Malta. It began on 16 August 2013 and ended on 26 April 2014. Birkirkara are the defending champions, having won their 4th title the previous season.
The Premier League consisted of two rounds. In the First Round, every team played each opponent twice, once "home" and once "away" (in actuality, the designation of home and away were purely arbitrary as most of the clubs did not have their own grounds), for a total of 22 games. The league then split into two pools. Earned points are subsequently halved. Teams that finished in the positions 1–6 competed in the "Championship Pool" and teams that finished in positions 7–12 played in the "Relegation Pool".
Ħamrun Spartans and Melita were relegated finishing 11th and 12th, respectively, in the previous season.
Promoted were, Naxxar Lions and Vittoriosa Stars finishing 1st and 2nd, respectively, in the First Division the previous season.
