The 2012–13 Segunda Liga is the 23rd season of the second-tier of football in Portugal. This season marked a series of changes in the league overall. The league's name was changed back to Segunda Liga from the previous Liga de Honra. A total of 22 teams will contest the league, up from 16 in the previous season; 14 of which already contested in the 2011–12 season, two of which were promoted from the Portuguese Second Division (including a reserve team), one of which was relegated from the 2011–12 Primeira Liga, and five of which are new reserve teams of Primeira Liga clubs. The reserve teams won't be able to be promoted to next season's Primeira Liga.

Events

União Leiria was relegated to the second division due to not fulfilling the mandatory requirements by the PLPF regarding the application process to professional competitions.^[1] Thus, Sporting da Covilhã was invited to stay in te Segunda Liga despite being relegated in the previous season.^[2]

Varzim, the 2011–12 Segunda Divisão champions, also didn't fulfill the requirements and weren't registered in the Segunda Liga. Again, Portimonense were invited to remain in the Segunda Liga.^[3]
