The 2017–18 season was Al-Shorta's 44th season in the Iraqi Premier League, having featured in all 43 previous editions of the competition. They entered this season having finished a promising third in the league in the 2016–17 season, and were looking to wrestle back the title they won in both the 2012–13 and 2013–14 seasons, but only managed a fourth place finish, ending up five points off of champions Al-Zawraa after conceding last minute goals in multiple matches.[1]
