2025 Philippines Football League (Octavio2510)

The 2025 Philippines Football League will be the seventh season of Philippines Football League (PFL), the professional football league of the Philippines. The season started on February 16 and concluded in 21 December. The league was contested by eighteen teams, the most ever in the league's history.Kaya–Iloilo are the defending champions.
==Format changes==
Due to the recent expansion which saw three new teams added to the league, the Philippine Football Federation and Liga Futbol Inc. decided on changing the format they had used last year.
The new format would see each team playing each other twice while using a "hybrid home-and-away format", which saw more matches played at centralized venues to alleviate costs. After the conclusion of those matches, the top eight teams would advance to a finals series consisting of two-legged quarter- and semi-final ties, after which a third-place play-off match will be played, then the final.
==Clubs==
All fifteen clubs from the previous season confirmed its participation, alongside former UFL participant Laos who expressed their commitment to the upcoming season. Pilipinas Dragons, a team that participated in the 2023 edition of the Copa, confirmed its participation around the same time.
CF Manila, a team owned by Stephan Schröck and participated in the 2023 edition of the Copa, confirmed its participation in early 2025. The team mainly comprised from the Azkals Development Academy.
==Stadiums and locations==
The league used a hybrid home-and-away format, with some clubs choosing to have temporary stadiums to cut down costs. After spending a year playing in the University of Makati stadium, Davao Aguilas moved back to Davao in the newly constructed Davao City–UP Sports Complex.
In late 2024, Loyola announced that they would be playing in the University of Makati stadium, who was previously occupied by Davao Aguilas. The team was renamed to Loyola–Makati.
