The 2025–26 Danish Superliga (officially the 3F Superliga for sponsorship purposes) is the 36th season of the Danish Superliga. Copenhagen entered the season as the defending champions, having secured the 2024–25 title.

The schedule for the first seven matchdays was released on 6 June 2025, with the opening fixture set for 18 July between Viborg and Copenhagen.[2] Between early December and mid-February, the league will enter into its standard winter break during which no league fixtures will be played.[3]

Teams

OB makes an immediate return to the Superliga, winning the 2024–25 Danish 1st Division title in a rare appearance at the lower level. Fredericia joins OB in promotion, marking that club's first appearance in the top flight in its existence. Those two teams replace AaB and Lyngby, which were relegated at the end of the previous season, ending their top flight spells of one and three years respectively.
