Cobreloa won their first Primera B championship in this tournament, securing both the title as well as promotion to the Chilean Primera División with a 2–1 victory over Rangers on the final round of the regular season on 15 October.[3] Deportes Iquique were the other promoted team, defeating Santiago Wanderers in the promotion play-off finals to claim the remaining promotion spot.[4]

Format

The 16 participating teams played each other in a double round-robin tournament (once at home and once away) for a total of 30 matches, with the top team at the end of the 30 rounds winning the championship as well as promotion to the Campeonato Nacional for the following season. The play-off tournament to decide the second promoted team (Liguilla) was expanded from five to seven teams, which were the ones placing from second to eighth place, and the league runners-up received a bye to the semi-finals. The playoffs winning team was the second and last promoted team to the top flight for the following season. The bottom-placed team at the end of the regular season was relegated to the Segunda División Profesional.[5]
