FC Rosengård were the reigning champions, having won a record 14th title in the previous season. However, the club did not defend their title, and instead had their worst season in history.
Alingsås IF were relegated back down to the Elitettan on 19 October following a 3–3 draw at home with Växjö DFF.[2] Linköping FC, once one of Sweden's top clubs, were relegated to the Elitettan on 8 November for the first time in history, following FC Rosengård's 1–0 away win over Piteå IF and Brommapojkarna's 3–0 home win over AIK.[3] Brommapojkarna finished 12th and defeated KIF Örebro in the promotion/relegation playoffs, therefore staying in the top flight.[4][5]
BK Häcken won the title on 8 November following a 2–0 away win over Djurgårdens IF, clinching their second Damallsvenskan title and their first since 2020 (when the club was known as Kopparbergs/Göteborg FC). Häcken alongside runners-up Hammarby IF and newly-promoted third place Malmö FF secured spots in the qualifying rounds of the UEFA Women's Champions League (UWCL).[3]
