Barcelona were the two-time defending champions, and successfully defended their title following a 3–1 win over Alavés in the final.
As winners, Barcelona would have been assured a place for the 2017–18 UEFA Europa League group stage; however, since they already qualified for the Champions League by finishing 2nd in La Liga, the berth was instead passed down the league.
