The 2013 Torneo Descentralizado de Fútbol Profesional (known as the 2013 Copa Movistar for sponsorship reasons) is the 97th season of the highest division of Peruvian football. A total of 16 teams are competing in the tournament, with Sporting Cristal as the defending champion. The Torneo Descentralizado began in February and is ended in December 2013.

Competition modus

The season is divided into 3 stages. In the first stage 16 teams play a round-robin home-and-away round for a total of 30 matches each. In the second stage the 16 teams are divided into 2 groups. In addition, the team ranked first at the end of the first stage is eligible to play the 2014 Copa Libertadores as Peru 3. Each team carry their records from the first stage into the second stage. Both groups play another round-robin home-and-away round for 14 matches. Bonus points are awarded to two teams based on the performance of their reserve teams in the 2013 Torneo de Promoción y Reserva before the first match of the second stage. The teams ranked first in each group at the end of the 14 matches advance to the third stage. The two teams with the worst least points at the end of the second stage are relegated. In the third stage the championship is contested in a two-legged Play-off. The Play-off finalists qualify for the Copa Libertadores. The remaining international competition berths are determined by the season aggregate table.

Play-offs

The Third Stage were the finals (also known as the Play-off) of the 2013 season between the winners of each group of the Second Stage. They were played in December. The group winner with the most points on the aggregate table chose which leg they played as the home team. They also chose the venue of the third match as both teams were tied on points after the second leg.

Tied 4–4 on points. Universitario won 5–4 on penalties.

Aggregate table

The aggregate table will determine the four teams who qualify to the 2014 Copa Sudamericana, one team to the 2014 Copa Libertadores if necessary, and the two teams to be relegated to the Segunda División. The aggregate table consists of the points earned in the First and Second stages.
