The 2022 Taça da Liga final was the final match of the 2021–22 Taça da Liga, the fifteenth season of the Taça da Liga. It was played on 29 January 2022 at Estádio Municipal de Leiria.

The competition involved the 34 clubs playing in the top two tiers of the Portuguese football league system – 18 from Primeira Liga and 16 from Liga Portugal 2 – during the 2021–22 season. Reserve sides of Primeira Liga teams that played in the 2020–21 Liga Portugal 2 were excluded from the competition. The competition format suffered changes for a to accommodate a reduction in the number of participating teams, particularly from the Liga Portugal 2.

Benfica and Sporting CP faced off for the second time in a rematch of the 2009 final.[1][2] In the final, Sporting defeated Benfica 2–1 to earn its fourth title in their sixth fina, with Benfica losing their first final. Sporting became the second team (after Benfica) in the competition's history to win the competition four times.[3]
