The 1991–92 season was FC Zürich's 95th season in their existence, since their foundation in 1896. It was their second season in the top flight of Swiss football, following their promotion at the end of 1989–90 season.

Overview Since the AGM in 1986 the local businessman Sven Hotz was the club's chairman and patron. Herbert Neumann had been head-coach for the previous two seasons and Walter Iselin had been his assistant and the pair continued in charge of the FCZ first team for this season. The FCZ first team competed in this years domestic first-tier 1991–92 Nationalliga A with the clear intention of retaining their top level status. The team also competed in 1991–92 Swiss Cup. They had not qualified for any of the UEFA European tournaments and they did not enter the Intertoto Cup. FCZ played their home games in the Letzigrund and the stadium is located in the west of Zurich in the district of Altstetten, which is about three kilometers from the city center.

Following a bad run, with five league defeats in seven games during August, and the elimination from the Cup in the third round, the club and head-coach Neumann parted ways. Neumann was replaced by Kurt Jara on 1 October. Jara had previously coached St. Gallen for two years and had led Grasshopper Club to the championship title in the 1989–90 season.
