All statistics correct as of 10 October 2015.

The 2015 Girabola is the 37th season of top-tier football in Angola. The season ran from 11 February to 10 October 2015. Recreativo do Libolo survived a late-season scare from 1º de Agosto to win their fourth Angolan championship, all in the past five years. Recreativo do Libolo needed a scoreless draw against Académica do Lobito in their final game to finish in a tie atop the standings with 1º de Agosto, who closed the season with six straight wins. Recreativo do Libolo won the tiebreaker based on head-to-head points.

The league comprised 16 teams, the bottom three of which will be relegated to the 2016 Gira Angola.[1] Domant, Onze Bravos and Sporting de Cabinda finished in the last three spots and will be relegated.
