Statistics of the Swiss National League in the 1994–95 football season. This was the final season in which two points were awarded for a win; going forward this changed to three points.

Overview

The 28 teams of the Swiss Football League (Nationalliga) were divided into two divisions. There were 12 teams who played in the Nationalliga A (NLA), the top-tier. There were 16 teams in the Nationalliga B (NLB), the second tier, these were divided into two groups, a West group and an East group. Each team in each group played a double round-robin in the qualification phase. Thereafter the divisions were divided into a Swiss championship group, a NLA/NLB promotion/relegation group, each group with eight teams, and a relegation group NLB/1. Liga, here with the remaining 12 teams. Because the format in the following NLB season would be reduced from two groups to just one group of only 12 teams, there were two be six relegations from the NLB to the 1. Liga (third tier).

Nationalliga A

=Qualification phase=

The qualification of the NLA began on 27 July 1994 and was completed on 4 December. The top eight teams in the qualification phase would advance to the championship group and the last four teams would play against relegation.
