Futbol Club Andorra is a football club based in Andorra la Vella, Andorra, established in 1942. They play in the Spanish football league system.

Most of the Andorra national football team are typically selected from FC Andorra, which currently competes in the Primera Catalana at the 5th level of the Spanish football league system. Though the club are based in Andorra, they have competed in the Spanish league system since 1948. Segunda División B, the third tier, is the highest league that the club have played in.

Futbol Club Andorra has historically been the biggest football club in the country. The club was founded on 15 October 1942 in the College of Our Lady of Meritxell, becoming the first football club to be founded in Andorra. The club joined the categories of the Catalan Football Federation, contesting the Spanish League and Spanish Cup.

After several years in regional categories, the Andorran club climbed in 1981 to Segunda División B (third category of the Spanish league system), where it remained for 17 years, with a break in the 1986–87 season when the team played in Tercera División. In the 1988–89 and 1989–90 seasons FC Andorra was close to promote to Segunda División.

Its greatest success came in 1994 when FC Andorra won the Copa Catalunya. The Andorran team eliminated FC Barcelona in the semifinals (aggregate 2–1) and RCD Espanyol 4–2 on penalties in the final played in the Municipal Stadium of Vilassar de Mar, after a scoreless draw in the game.
