This was the 77th season of top-tier and the 76th season of second-tier football in Switzerland. Overview The Swiss Football Association (ASF/SFV) had 28 member clubs at this time which were divided into two divisions of 14 teams each. The teams played a double round-robin to decide their table positions. Two points were awarded for a win, and one point was awarded for a draw. The top tier (NLA) was contested by the top 12 teams from the previous 1972–73 season and the two newly promoted teams Xamax and Chênois. The champions would qualify for the 1974–75 European Cup. The second and third placed teams were qualified for the 1974–75 UEFA Cup. The last two placed teams were relegated. The second-tier (NLB) was contested by the two teams that had been relegated from the NLA, FC Grenchen and FC Fribourg, the teams that had been in third to twelfth position last season and the two newly promoted teams FC Nordstern Basel and FC Tössfeld. The top two teams would be promoted and the last two teams relegated.
