Boyacá Chicó were the champions, winning their third Primera B title as well as promotion to the top flight by defeating Atlético Huila by a 3–0 score on aggregate in the season's Grand Final.[1] Atlético Huila claimed the other promotion berth, defeating Deportes Quindío in the promotion play-off by a 2–1 aggregate score.[2]

Format

The format for the 2022 Primera B season was approved at DIMAYOR's General Assembly session of 17 December 2021.[3]

For this season, and similar to the previous one, two tournaments (Torneo I and Torneo II) with three stages each were played. In the first stage of both tournaments, the 15 teams (16 teams in Torneo II) played a single round-robin tournament with each team having a bye round and home-and-away order reversed for the Torneo II. The top eight teams at the end of the fifteen rounds advanced to the semi-finals, where teams were drawn into two groups of four where they played each one of their rivals twice. The top team of each group advanced to the finals, playing a double-legged series with the winners advancing to the Grand Final.

The Grand Final to decide the season champions as well as the first promotion to Primera A, was a double-legged series contested at the end of the season by the winners of the season's two tournaments. The second promotion spot to Primera A for the 2023 season was decided in a promotion play-off between the Grand Final loser and the best-placed team of the season's aggregate table, other than the Grand Final winners.[4]

Teams

Originally, 15 teams took part in the season. Cortuluá and Unión Magdalena, who won the semifinal groups of the 2021–II Primera B tournament, were promoted to Primera A for the 2022 season and were replaced in Primera B by Atlético Huila and Deportes Quindío, who were relegated at the end of the 2021 Primera A Finalización tournament.[5][6]

On 20 April 2022 the General Assembly of DIMAYOR approved the reaffiliation of Cúcuta Deportivo, which had been expelled from the entity on 25 November 2020 due to legal issues. Despite being in the top tier at the moment of its disaffiliation, it was decided that Cúcuta Deportivo would enter the Primera B competition starting from the second half of the 2022 season, with which the tournament expanded to 16 teams.[7]
