The 2024–25 Liga FPD season, also known as Liga Promérica[1] for sponsorship reasons, is the 104th season since its establishment. The tournament is divided into two championships, the Apertura and Clausura, each in an identical format and each contested by 12 teams.

Teams and Structure Changes

[edit]

A total of 12 teams will contest the league, including 11 sides from the 2023–24 season and one team promoted from the Liga de Ascenso.

Like the previous season, the league has the following playoff format. The top 4 teams in the regular season will progress to a two-legged knockout tournament. If the same team that wins the regular season wins the playoff, that team wins the season championship immediately. Should a different team win the playoff than won the regular season, those two teams will meet in a two-legged Grand Final for the season championship.
