Following this two-round tournament the top five clubs formed the Promotion Group while the bottom five took part in the Relegation Round.
Part 2
editDespite being in the same group, at this stage no matches were held between the teams who faced each other in Phase 1. Besides, from the previous round the clubs retained only those points obtained in matches against such opponents.[1] It took another seven weeks before each team played ten matches. At the end the four teams advanced to Liga 3 and another four dropped down to Regionuli Liga.[2]
