The Malaysia Premier League (Malay: Liga Premier) was the second-tier professional football league in Malaysia. It replaced the Liga Perdana 2 in the Malaysian football league system.
The Malaysia Premier League was contested by 12 clubs. The season usually ran from early February to late October, with a Ramadan break depending on the Islamic calendar. Clubs played 22 matches (home and away), totalling 132 matches in the season. Most games were played on Fridays, with a few games played during weekdays. The league operated on a system of promotion and relegation with promotion to the Malaysia Super League and relegation to the Malaysia M3 League.
In 2015, the Football Malaysia Limited Liability Partnership (FMLLP) - later known as the Malaysia Football League (MFL) - was created in the course of the privatisation of the Malaysian football. The partnership saw all 24 clubs of the Malaysia Super League and the Malaysia Premier League, including the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) as a managing partner and MP & Silva as a special partner, to become stakeholders.
The 2022 was the final season of the Premier League, as it was discontinued in favour of an expanded Super League, and a future second-tier league. From the 2016 to the 2018 season, the league was known as the 100PLUS Liga Premier for sponsorship reasons. The last champions were Johor Darul Ta'zim FC II.
