Locations of the 2021–22 Egyptian Premier League teams

Eighteen teams are competing in the league - the top fifteen teams from the previous season, and three teams promoted from the Egyptian Second Division.

Venues

A total of 12 stadiums in 5 governorates were selected by clubs to host their 2021–22 home fixtures. Each club has the option to submit a reserve home venue in case of unavailability for their main home stadium.

Due to security concerns, selected matches are played on neutral ground due to high intensity. For example, fixtures between Al Ahly and Ismaily are played in Alexandria. All matches involving Al Masry are also played in the same city.
