Colombian soccer clubs made radical decisions about the 2024 competitions. The format of the BetPlay League had changes, as well as the way to qualify for the 2025 Copa Libertadores, which affects the BetPlay Cup.
League I will begin on January 20, 2024 and will have 19 dates, one less than those played this year in both semesters. La Dimayor explained that the classics day will not be played.
After the 19 dates, returning to the ‘playoffs’ (quarterfinals, semifinals and final, round-trip games) was ruled out, and the home run format will be maintained.
In the Dimayor assembly the issue of relegation was discussed, as Jaguares proposed that the two teams that were relegated to B be the ones with the worst performance in the annual reclassification table; However, in voting the average was maintained, which is taken from the campaigns of the last three seasons.
Finally, it was approved that the champion of the BetPlay Cup obtain the “Colombia 1” quota for the Copa Sudamericana. Thus, the four teams that qualify for Libertadores will be defined in the BetPlay League: the champions and according to reclassification.
“The clubs decided to have two semesters with home runs. The date of the classics is eliminated, giving it a little space and room for maneuver,” Fernando Jaramillo, president of Dimayor.#SaqueLargoWIN pic.twitter.com/tTlRLwklVd
