The 2025 Liga 1 de Fútbol Profesional (known as the Liga 1 Te Apuesto 2025 for sponsorship reasons) was the 109th season of the Peruvian Primera División, the highest division of Peruvian football. The season began on 7 February and ended on 14 December 2025. The fixture for the season was drawn on 14 January 2025.
The defending champions Universitario won their twenty-ninth league title and third in a row by winning both the Apertura and Clausura tournaments, clinching the national title after defeating ADT 2âÂÂ1 on 26 October.
On 19 August 2025, the Peruvian Football Federation officially announced the disqualification of Binacional from Liga 1 and the 2025 Torneo Juvenil Sub-18, following a court ruling that annulled the injunction which had allowed the club to return to the first division after its relegation in 2023. In its statement, the FPF stated that the Juliaca-based team would be informed about its participation in future tournaments in due course. Aside from Binacional, Ayacucho and Alianza Universidad were both relegated to Liga 2 on sporting performance at the end of the season.
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. 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 and Binacional were both reinstated in the league after winning judicial cases against the Peruvian Football Federation, which increased the number of teams to 19. The promoted teams replaced Carlos A. Mannucci, Universidad César Vallejo and Unión Comercio, who were relegated at the end of the previous season.

The playoffs to decide the Liga 1 champion were set to be contested by the winners of the Apertura and Clausura tournaments as well as the top two teams in the season's aggregate table (other than the tournament winners). Since Universitario won both the Apertura and Clausura tournaments, they were crowned as league champions without playing this stage and the playoffs were instead held to decide the season's runner-up as well as the final positions of the remaining Copa Libertadores qualifiers, being played by the next best three teams in the aggregate table. Cusco, as the team placing second in the aggregate table, received a bye to the second stage, while the other two playoff qualifiers (Alianza Lima and Sporting Cristal) entered the first stage.
The Stage 2 winner qualified for the Copa Libertadores group stage, while the Stage 2 loser qualified for the Copa Libertadores second stage and the Stage 1 loser entered the Copa Libertadores first stage.
Tied 4âÂÂ4 on aggregate. Sporting Cristal won on penalties.
Cusco won 2âÂÂ1 on aggregate.
