Sumario:Futsal is a sport with a significant number of practitioners. Its small playing field and the rapidity of the players’ actions encourage research on its configuration parameters to learn strategies that improve sports performance. The objective of this paper is to review the articles published between 2015 and 2020 that deal with elite futsal. A bibliographic search was carried out in the Scopus and Dialnet databases using different combinations of the terms: “futsal”, “futsal”, “elite”, “professional” and “high performance”. A total of 114 articles were found, and 50 papers were analyzed after applying the inclusion criteria. Three main categories were established: 1) investigations related to game conditioning factors, 2) investigations related to training loads and physical, physiological and mechanical capacities, and 3) other investigated topics. The finding of a high number of investigations related to technical and tactical aspects of futsal and the analysis of physical capacities is confirmed. A certain absence of studies related to mental and emotional performance was detected, as well as studies of the coach’s role as head of the team or work on women’s futsal, areas that should be addressed in future research
