2007 Latvian Higher League

For the second time in a row FK Ventspils won the championship. In mid-season FK Liepājas Metalurgs had a lead of 11 points over Ventspils who won their last 11 games, conceding just one goal. FK Rīga finished third for the first time in the club's history. FC Skonto finished the season without winning any competitions for the first time, and also for the first time they would not compete in any of the European cups in 2008 as one of the UEFA Cup qualifying spots was taken by JFC Olimps Rīga for reaching the Latvian Cup final. Vīts Rimkus from Ventspils was the top scorer with 20 goals.

At the end of the season the Latvian Football Federation announced that the Virslīga would expand to 10 clubs for the 2008 season. Therefore, no club was relegated to the First League.{{cite news |last=Hartmanis |first=Martins |title=LMT Virsliga new season calendar published |publisher=Latvian Football Federation |date=2007-12-01 |url=http://www.lff.lv/en/news/2008/02/03/ |access-date=2008-02-20 }} The last time there were ten clubs in the Virslīga was in the 1996 season.
