Promotion and relegation from 2008–09

Siófok and Rákospalota finished the season in the last two places and thus were relegated to their respective NB II divisions. Siófok ended a two-year stint in Hungary's highest football league while Rákospalota were relegated after four years.

Promotion to the league was achieved by the champions of the NB II Eastern Division, Ferencváros and by the runners-up of the Western Division, Pápa. Both teams return to the National Division after three-year absences. Pápa capitalized on the denial of a NB I license for Western Division champions Gyirmót SE.[2]

Overview

Summarize
Perspective

Debrecen won their fifth title in six years, and their third under András Herczeg. The club started off the season by losing their first league game since March, after a 1-0 defeat at Diósgyőr. DVSC then went on an 8-game winning streak, but lost three consecutive games in October including a 3-0 defeat to title-contenders Videoton, and were placed second, 2 points off of Videoton by half-time. The club from Fehérvár only suffered two losses throughout the autumn part of the campaign, and went on an 18-game unbeaten run in the league.

MTK ended Videoton's unbeaten streak in May, defeating them 1-0 in Fehérvár. The following week Debrecen defeated Videoton 3-2, and were 6 points clear off of their western counterparts, with three games to go. Some hope was restored in Vidi's title-aspirations, as DVSC suffered a 2-1 loss at Újpest in Gameweek 28, while Videoton shut out Vasas 3-0. Going into the last gameday, the teams were just separated by just one point. Videoton lost in their arch-rivals' home, as Győri ETO beat them 1-0, meaning that despite DVSC's defeat at Kecskemét of the same scoreline, the railway team successfully defended their championship.
