The 2025 Liga 1 de Fútbol Profesional (known as the Liga 1 Te Apuesto 2025 for sponsorship reasons) will be the 109th season of the Peruvian Primera División, the highest division of Peruvian football. The season is scheduled to begin on 30 January and end on 14 December 2025.[1]

Universitario are the defending champions, having won back-to-back titles in 2023 and 2024.

Teams

Initially, 17 teams were to take part in the league in this season: the top 15 teams from the 2024 season, plus the 2024 Liga 2 champions Alianza Universidad and runner-up Juan Pablo II College.[2] Juan Pablo II College got promoted for the first time in their history while Alianza Universidad appeared for the first time since 2020. However, Ayacucho's reincorporation into the league from winning a judicial battle against the Peruvian Football Federation increased the number of teams back to 18.[3] The promoted teams replaced Carlos A. Mannucci, Universidad César Vallejo and Unión Comercio, who were relegated at the end of the previous season.
