The Scottish Professional Football League comprises the top four divisions of the Scottish football league system. The league was established in 2013, following a merger of the Scottish Premier League (tier one) and the Scottish Football League (tiers two to four). The Scottish Premier League itself had been formed in 1998 as a breakaway from the Scottish Football League, which had been established in 1890.
