The2011–12Nemzeti Bajnokság I, also known as NB I for short, was the 110th season of top-tier football in Hungary. The league was officially namedOTP Bank Liga for sponsorship reasons.[2] The season began on 15 July 2011[3] and ended on 27 May 2012.[4]Videoton were the defending champions, having won their first Hungarian championship at the end of the2010–11 season.
The tournament was contested by 16 teams, andDebreceni VSC won the title under headcoachElemér Kondás, claiming their sixth national title. The team from Hajdú-Bihar county went undefeated throughout the entire season, becoming the first hungarian team since Vasas to win the championship undefeated in 1966, and the first ever club outside of Budapest to complete an invincible season.
DVSC started off the campaign by winning 7 consecutive games, and were leading the table by 9 points by the winter break. The red and whites' championship was confirmed on the 12th of May, after Debrecen thrashedPécsi-MFC 4-0 at theNagyerdei Stadium in front of 10,500 fanatics.
Videoton FC, the defending champions, won 9 of their last 10 fixtures, but could not repeat the leaugetitle glory of the previous season, and had to settle for a 2nd place finish.
Szolnok andMTK finished the2010–11 season in the bottom two places of the table and thus were relegated to their respectiveNB II divisions. MTK ended a 16-year stay in the top league, while Szolnok were relegated after just one year in the league.
The two relegated teams were replaced with the champions of the two2010–11 NB II groups,Diósgyőr of the East Group andPécs of the West Group. Diósgyőr made their immediate comeback to the league, while Pécs returned to the competition after an absence of four seasons.
