The 2013–14 Premier League of Bosnia and Herzegovina, also known as BH Telecom Premier League for sponsorship reasons,[1] is the fourteenth season of the Premier League of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the highest football league of Bosnia and Herzegovina, since its original establishment in 2000 and twelfth as a unified country-wide league. The season began on 27 July 2013[2] and ended on 10 May 2014, with a winter break between 2 December 2013 and 1 March 2014.[3] The official fixture schedule was released sometime in late June/early July 2013.

A total of 16 teams contested the league, including 14 sides from the 2012–13 season and one promoted club from each of the two second-level leagues, Vitez from 2012–13 First League of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Mladost from 2012–13 First League of the Republika Srpska who replaced relegated Gradina and GOŠK.

Zrinjski were crowned national champions for the third time, while defending champions Željezničar ended up in fourth position and missed out on European qualification for the first time in five years.

Leotar and Rudar Prijedor were relegated at the end of the season, after finishing last and second from last, respectively.

Teams

A total of 16 teams contested the league, including 14 sides from the 2012–13 season and two promoted from each of the second-level league, 2012–13 First League of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and 2012–13 First League of the Republika Srpska.

Gradina was constantly on the last spot already since round 5 and got officially relegated 5 rounds before the season finished, ending their debut season rather unsuccessfully, earning only 9 points, which is the third lowest since the league renamed to Premier League of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the year 2000. The relegation of GOŠK was confirmed only after the last round finished, ending their two year run in the Premier League of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The relegated teams were replaced by the champions of the two second–level leagues, Vitez from the First League of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Mladost from the First League of the Republika Srpska. Both teams made their debut in the Premier League.
