The 2007 season is Santiago Wanderers 81st season in the Primera División, the 44th in the Campeonato Nacional and the 8th consecutive season since their last promotion in 1999.^[1] This article shows player statistics and all matches, official and friendly, that the club played during the 2007 season.

In a season made to commemorate its 115th anniversary, the club had a poor performance during the year, by finishing the Torneo Apertura in 20th position with 13 points and the Torneo Clausura in 5th place of the Group A with 17 points. As a consequence, Santiago Wanderers was relegated to Primera B for the 2008 season, after finishing the year table in 20th position with 30 points.^[2]

This season marked the sixth time in history that Wanderers was relegated to Primera B, after their previous relegations in 1977, 1980, 1984, 1991 and 1998.^[1]
