The 2008 Singapore League Cup marks the second occasion on which the Singapore League Cup competition has been staged. (The event was launched in 2007). Its official sponsored name for 2008 is the Avaya-J&J League Cup.

In 2007, the event was held before the start of the S.League season (and serving as a pre-season warm-up tournament), and was won by Woodlands Wellington FC. However, in 2008, the event is being held during the S.League season. All 12 S.League teams have entered the 2008 competition.

The cup is being played over four rounds. The top four teams in the S.League in 2007 were given a bye to the quarter-final stage.

The final will be played on 16 June at Jalan Besar Stadium.
