, the other titles that decade were won by FTC and MTK, with the latter doing so undefeated in 1906 and 1908. In the 1910s and 1920s, the championship was dominated by Ferencváros and MTK. The green and whites won 7 leaguetitles between 1905 and 1913, while MTK won 9 consecutive national championships, a recording standing to this day. In 1929 MTK claimed their 13th league title, expanding the gap between their trophy cabinet and that of Ferencváros. With 13 championships at the time, MTK were the record champions.


1930-1950

In the 1930s, the rivalry between Ferencváros and MTK Budapest expanded with another club,
Újpest FC Újpest Football Club () is a Hungary, Hungarian professional association football, football club based in Újpest, Budapest, that competes in Nemzeti Bajnokság I. Formed in 1885, Újpest reached the first division of the Hungarian League in ...
(at that time not part of Budapest). Újpest became the first club to break the duopoly of Ferencváros and MTK in the league in 26 years, as they won the 1930 Hungarian 1st Division, for the first time in the club's history. Újpest would defend their title the following season, eventually closing out the decade with 5 titles. In 1932 Ferencváros won the league with a 100% win rate, winning all 20 of their games. One of the most iconic figures of the 1930s Hungarian football was Újpest's Zsengellér who managed to top goalscorer three times in a row in the 1930s. Ferencváros's Sárosi and MTK Budapest's Cseh and Újpest's Zsengellér were the embodiment of the rivalry of the three clubs from Budapest, named Budapest derby. In 1941 Ferencváros won their 16th national championship, to overtake MTK as the record champions. In the 1940s, Csepel could win its first title which was followed by two other titles in

1950-1980

, Hungarian football clubs lost the support of the state. Therefore, many clubs were faced with financial problems the effects of which are still present in Hungarian football. However, the 1990s were still dominated by the 'traditional' clubs of the championships such as Ferencváros, MTK and Újpest. Ferencváros finished in the top three for every season of the decade, except for the 1993–94 season, when they finished 4th. The green and whites added 3 championships to their tally throughout the '90's decade. In 1994 Vác FC won their first and only leaguetitle in club history, finishing 3 points clear off of Honvéd under coach János Csank. MTK suffered their first ever relegation in 1994, after finishing 16th during the 1993/94 season, however, the white and blues quickly bounced back, and won their 20th national championship in 1997, and their 21st in 1999. During both seasons, MTK achieved the first and second highest ever point tallies (87 and 85, respectively) in the history of the Hungarian League. Újpest started off the 1990's decade by winning the league under headcoach Péter Várhidi, after a dramatic titlerace against MTK, which saw both clubs finish on equal points on the last day of the season. The club from the North of Pest saw little success in the ensuing 4 years, finishing as low as 14th in 1993, narrowly avoiding relegation. Off of the back of a bronze-medal, and two runner-up finishes, in 1998 Újpest won their 20th national championship, defeating Budapest Honvéd 2-0 on the last day of the season. The financial problems affected the performance of the clubs outside the Hungarian League as well. Hungarian clubs could not compete with their European counterparts. Moreover, the
