The Supercopa Peruana, (Peruvian Supercup) is a football competition organized by the Peruvian Football Federation since 2020. It is played in a single match, on a neutral field, which, if necessary, breaks the tie with shots from the penalty spot. It is played between the champions of the Copa Bicentenario and Peruvian Primera División. In the event that the same team wins both the cup and the championship, its opponent will be the runner-up of the latter.
