The 2013 TNM Super League was the 28th season of the Super League of Malawi, the top professional league for association football clubs in Malawi since its establishment in 1986. It started on 27 April 2013 and was scheduled to conclude on 28 December 2013, but officially ended on 18 February 2014.[1] Silver Strikers were the defending champions.
The match from the last round between Mighty Wanderers and Silver Strikers was interrupted due to the violence of their supporters. The match was postponed to be replayed for two times, first time on 5 January at Kalulu Stadium and second time on 26 January at the ZACC Ground in Zomba. Finally was replayed on 18 February 2014 behind closed doors at Kamuzu Stadium. Silver Strikers won 2–1 and clinched the third consecutive and eighth overall Super League title.[2] [3]
