Per the Egyptian Football Association decision made on 9 August 2023, the 2024–25 edition's format differs from the previous season. The league consists of 20 teams in one group, with all teams playing each other twice, home and away, for a total of thirty-eight matches.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Main stadiums for the 2024–25 season are listed only.[3] Clubs are allowed to play selected matches at alternative venues; whether due to unavailability, security concerns, or other reasons. For example, Asyut Petroleum, a team from Asyut, may play some home games at Asyut University Stadium, instead of their regular home stadium, Asyut Petroleum Stadium.
