All statistics correct as of 1 June 2025.

The 2024–25 Danish Superliga (officially the 3F Superliga for sponsorship purposes) was the 35th season of the Danish Superliga. Midtjylland entered the season as the defending champions, having secured the 2023–24 title on the final day. However, Midtjylland were unable to defend their title as they finished the season in second place, one point behind champions Copenhagen.[2]

The schedule for the first seven matchdays was released on 7 June 2024, with the opening fixture set for 19 July between AGF and Midtjylland.[3] Following the 17th round of fixtures, between 2 December and 14 February, the league entered a winter break in which no league fixtures were played.[4]

Teams

Sønderjyske won the 2023–24 Danish 1st Division returning to the Superliga after a two-year stint at the lower division,[5] and AaB[6] made an immediate return to the top flight by finishing second in the 1st Division. Those two teams replaced OB and Hvidovre, making it the first time since the 1999–2000 season that OB would not play in the top tier division.
