This season was played in a format different from the standard one. The Apertura was played as follows: it consists of 6 rounds in Cuadrangulares, 15 rounds in a single round robin, and one round (22) with regional derbies. The winners qualify for the Copa Libertadores, runners-up for Copa Conmebol.
The Finalizacion was played as: again 6 rounds of Cuadrangulares, 15 rounds in a single round robin, one more round of regional derbies, and then another set of Cuadrangulares according to the top eight teams of the table. The winners of each tournament qualify for the Copa Libertadores. However, since America de Cali finished first in the Apertura and then won the championship, the spot was passed down to the second-placed team of the Aggregate table, Junior.
