The 2025 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A (officially the Brasileirão Betano 2025 for sponsorship reasons) was the 69th season of the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, the top level of professional football in Brazil, and the 23rd edition in a double round-robin since its establishment in 2003. The competition began on 29 March and ended on 7 December 2025.
Flamengo were the champions, clinching their ninth league title on the penultimate matchday of the season after defeating Ceará 1–0 on 3 December 2025. The top six teams as well as the 2025 Copa do Brasil champions qualified for the Copa Libertadores. Meanwhile, the next six best-placed teams not qualified for Copa Libertadores qualified for the Copa Sudamericana, and the last four were relegated to Série B for 2026.
Botafogo were the defending champions, having won their third title in the previous season.
Teams Twenty teams competed in the league: the top 16 teams from the previous season and four teams promoted from the Série B.
Santos became the first club to be promoted on 11 November 2024 after a 2–0 win over Coritiba. Mirassol, Sport and Ceará all achieved promotion in the last round, on 24 November.
