Notes:
  1. [a]
    Since the Taça de Portugal winners Porto qualified for the Champions League, their place in the UEFA Cup went to Vitória de Setúbal, who were the Taça de Portugal runners-up.
  2. [b]
    Gil Vicente fielded an ineligible player, Angolan forward Mateus.[2] Due to this they lost the right to participate in the 2006–07 Primeira Liga which as a result meant Belenenses remained in the league
