2007 Torneo Descentralizado
The 2007 season of the Primera División Peruana, the top category of Peruvian football (soccer), was played by 12 teams. The national champion was Universidad San Martín de Porres.
The national championship was divided into two half-year tournaments, the Torneo Apertura and the Torneo Clausura. Each was played on a home-and-away round-robin basis. The winners of each would play for the national title in a playoff, but each team had to finish in the top 6 in both tournaments to earn the right to play the final; if the same club wins both tournaments, it would win the national championship automatically. Since no team fulfilled the conditions for playing in the national title playoff, Universidad San Martín de Porres, the Apertura winner, was awarded the title thanks to its better aggregate record over the Clasura winner, Coronel Bolognesi.
Following-season Copa Libertadores berths go to each half-year tournament winner, and the best of the other teams in the aggregate table (Cienciano). The next best two teams (Sport Ancash and Universitario) earned berths for the Copa Sudamericana. The bottom two teams in the aggregate table will be relegated.

Final playoff
No final playoff was played since neither the Apertura winners Universidad San Martín de Porres nor the Clausura winners Coronel Bolognesi finished in the top 6 of the tournament they did not win. Therefore, San Martín won the national title due to its better aggregate record.

Clásico
This season Alianza Lima was more successful against Universitario de Deportes in the Peruvian derby known as the Super Clásico Peruano. They played four times throughout the season, twice in the Estadio Alejandro Villanueva, once in the Estadio Nacional, and once in the Estadio Manuel Rivera Sanchez. Universitario chose to play in the Estadio Nacional (Apertura) and Estadio Manuel Rivera Sanchez (Clausura) as the home team because the Peruvian authorities did not allow the game to be played in the Estadio Monumental "U" due to security issues. Neither team won their home games and Universitario lost both games as the home team. Universitario's win at Alianza's stadium was the first time in three years; the last being in the 2004 Clausura where they won 0-2. Despite the result favoring Alianza, Universitario is a candidate to qualify for the Copa Sudamericana 2008 while Alianza Lima is currently two points away from reaching the same tournament.
