The Primera División of Chile( Chilean First Division) also called Campeonato Nacional BancoEstado for sponsorship reasons, is the top category of Chilean football, and main component of the Chilean football league system.
The Chilean First Division is currently played by 21 teams, which play two single-round tournaments per season. First, the Primera División - Apertura tournament is played (usually between January and June), and then is followed by the Primera División - Clausura tournament ( between July and December).
For each Apertura and Clausura tournament, a single round-robin tournament, called the regular phase, is played first. Afterwards, a post-season play-off begins, where the best eight teams in each single-round tournament eliminate each other in the knockout tournament format in two-leg aggregate-score: in this way, there are two champions per season.
The three teams with the worst scores in the complete season ( including Primera División - Apertura and Primera División - Clausura, but excluding the play-off stage), are relegated to Primera B, and replaced by the Champions and Runners-up of this Division, making the number of participating teams for the 2008 season equal to 20. There is also a Relegation Playoff Tournament, played in a home-and-away basis by the team who finishes 18° in the First Division, and the teams who finish 3° and 4° in the Primera B.
The champions of the Primera División - Apertura and Primera División - Clausura of each season are immediately qualified to Copa Libertadores for the next year. The third Chilean spot in that tournament is used by the team with the highest score in the Clausura regular phase, excluding the play-offs.
For the Copa Sudamericana , the qualification system changes every year.
