The 2025 season was the 22nd in the history of Auckland City Football Club. In addition to the domestic league, the club participated in the Chatham Cup for the fifth time, the OFC Men's Champions League for the 20th time and the FIFA Club World Cup for the 12th time. By winning the OFC Champions League, they also qualified for the FIFA Intercontinental Cup for the second time.

Overview

Pre-season

Auckland City began their preseason fixtures with a 2–2 draw against Eastern Suburbs at the Croatian Cultural Club.[1][2]

Northern League

The league fixtures were announced on 28 February 2025.[3] City played the season opener against Tauranga City,[4][5] and finished the season home to East Coast Bays.[6]

Auckland City's round four fixture with Western Springs was originally scheduled for 14 May 2025 due to the Navy Blue's participation in the OFC Champions League.[3][6] On 9 April, City announced the fixture had been moved back to the original match week on 12 April 2025 due to Auckland City's increased fixture congestion. This meant City would be playing two games on the same day with them playing the OFC Champions League final on the same day.

National League

The league fixtures were announced on 16 September 2025.[7] City have a bye in the first round, before playing Birkenhead United away in their opening game.[8] They close out the National League at home to Coastal Spirit.[9]
