The 2025 Campeonato Ecuatoriano de Fútbol Serie A will be the 67th season of the Serie A, Ecuador's top tier football league, and the seventh under the management of the Liga Profesional de Fútbol del Ecuador (or LigaPro). The season is scheduled to be played from February to December 2025.




Format changes


On 27 September 2024, the Council of Presidents of LigaPro approved changes to the format of competition for the 2025 season, aiming to have more matches played in the season. The tournament, which will have 72 additional matches, will have two stages: a first stage in which the 16 participating teams will play each other twice (once at home and once away), and a final stage in which the teams will be split into two hexagonals and one quadrangular group according to their placements in the first stage. In the first hexagonal, the top six teams from the first stage will play each other twice to decide the season champions as well as three Copa Libertadores berths and three Copa Sudamericana ones, while in the second hexagonal the next six teams will play for the last berth to the Copa Sudamericana. The top team at the end of the first stage will be assured of qualification for the Copa Libertadores group stage as Ecuador 2. Relegation will be decided in the quadrangular group, which will involve the four lowest-placed teams in the first stage, with the bottom two being relegated to the second tier at the end of the season. Points from the first stage will be carried over to the final stage.

16 teams will compete in the season, the top 14 teams from the 2024 Ecuadorian Serie A and the top two teams of the 2024 Ecuadorian Serie B. The two teams that will be relegated after finishing in the bottom two places of the aggregate table of the previous season will be replaced by the second tier champions Cuniburo and runners-up Manta. Cuniburo clinched a first-ever promotion to the top flight with three matches to go after a 2–0 loss for Guayaquil City against San Antonio on 13 October 2024, whilst Manta ensured a return to Serie A for the first time since 2021 with one match left on 24 October, after a 6–1 thrashing of Vargas Torres.
