The 2011 Uzbek League season was the 20th season of top-level football in Uzbekistan since independence in 1992.

Bunyodkor were the defending champions from the 2010 campaign.
New Rules
[edit]- The 5+1 format of foreign players has been reduced to 4+1.
- If any team is found winning with the help of the referee (i.e. the team made some deals with the referee before the game), the team will lose 6 to 9 points.
- If there are any riots during a game, then the team concerned will lose 3 points.
- Since there were too many coaches sacked in the last edition of the Uzbek League, now no club can fire their coach, except with the permission of the U.F.F.
Teams
[edit]Lokomotiv Tashkent and Xorazm FK Urganch were relegated in the last edition of the Uzbek League.
