Teams

edit

A total of 18 teams will be contesting the league, including 12 sides from the 2024–25 season, the three promoted teams from the Second Division and the three relegated sides from the Saudi Pro League.

Al-Raed were the first team to be relegated following a 1–0 defeat away to Damac on 11 May 2025.[3] Al-Raed were relegated after 17 consecutive seasons in the flight. On 25 May 2025, Al-Orobah became the second team to be relegated after they were docked three points for fielding an ineligible player against Al-Nassr.[4] Al-Orobah were relegated after one season in the top flight. Al-Wehda were the third and final club to be relegated, following a 2–1 away defeat to Al-Ettifaq on the final matchday.[5] Al-Wehda were relegated after three seasons in the top flight. Al-Raed will play in their 17th season in the FD League, while Al-Orobah will play in their 16th season and Al-Wehda in their 10th season.

The first club to be promoted was Al-Diriyah who did so after a 1–0 away win against Jerash on 10 February 2025.[6] On 14 March 2025, Al-Ula became the second club to be promoted following a 6–0 away win against Bisha.[7] The third and final club to be promoted was Al-Anwar, who did so after defeating Al-Jeel 3–1 on penalties (1–1 after extra time) in the promotion play-off final.[8]

Al-Diriyah were crowned champions for the second time after defeating Al-Ula 1–0 in the final.[9]

Al-Diriyah return to the First Division League after an absence of three years. They return to the league for the first time since the 2021–22 season and will play in their 6th overall season. Both Al-Anwar and Al-Ula were promoted to the First Division League for the first time in history.
