The 1983 Copa de la Liga was the first edition of Copa de la Liga. The competition started on May 8, 1983, and concluded on June 29, 1983. Due to time constraints, saturation and club pressure, the Copa de la Liga only lasted four years since 1982, being cancelled in 1986.[1]

The Copa de la Liga was played by 18 teams of 1982–83 La Liga. All rounds are played over two legs. The team that has the higher aggregate score over the two legs progresses to the next round.
