HNL; officially styled as T-Com Prva HNL for sponsorship reasons) was the nineteenth season of the Croatian First Football League, the national championship for men's association football teams in Croatia, since its establishment in 1992. It began on 24 July 2009 and ended on 13 May 2010. Dinamo Zagreb were the defending champions, having won their eleventh championship title (and fourth consecutive title) the previous season, and they defended the title again, after a goalless draw with Hajduk Split on 1 May 2010. The format was changed from previous season in that the league was expanded from 12 to 16 clubs. Promotion and relegation from 2008–09 Due to the expansion, no teams were directly relegated following the 2008–09 season. Four teams from 2008–09 Druga HNL earned direct promotion. These were champions Istra 1961, runners-up Karlovac, third-placed Lokomotiva and fifth-placed Međimurje. Fourth-placed team Slavonac CO had to step back from promotion after they were not able to find a suitable ground.http://www.sportnet.hr/Vijest.aspx?ID=378042 Međimurci direktno, Slavonac odustao Strahija Ivana 4 June 2009 Sportnet.hr hr 5 June 2009 Croatia Sesvete as last-placed team had to compete in a two-legged play-off against the sixth-placed team from Druga HNL, Hrvatski Dragovoljac.

Below is the list of all the stadiums which are licensed to be used in the Prva HNL, along with their home clubs and the promoted clubs who secured rights to use them as "guests" until their own grounds have sufficiently been upgraded to host top-level matches.Mihaela Bradovski Svi žele u Prvu HNL http://www.sportnet.hr/Vijest.aspx?ID=377603 Sportnet.hr 26 May 2009 20 August 2009 hr Croatia right 350 Locations of teams in 2009–10 Prva HNL Croatia 45.283742 18.797382 Cibalia left Croatia 45.818858 16.018078 Croatia 45.864722 15.799722 Inter left Croatia 44.858333 13.834167 Istra 1961 bottom Croatia 43.519444 16.431667 Hajduk Croatia 45.484517 15.563964 Karlovac bottom Croatia 45.544937 18.695705 Osijek left Croatia 45.339202 14.380959 Rijeka Croatia 46.165922 16.834788 S.
