2020 Primera Nacional

The competition was split into two stages: First Promotion and Second Promotion, which in turn, were split into two groups according to the groupings and placements of teams in the previous season. The top eight teams of each group at the time of suspension of the previous season played in the First Promotion stage, where they were split into two groups, while the remaining eight teams from each group played in the first round of the Second Promotion stage. In both stages, the teams were placed in groups according to the ones they were in for the previous season. In the First Promotion stage, each team played against the other teams in their group once, with the group winners playing a final match on neutral ground to decide the first promoted team to the Liga Profesional for the 2021 season. In the Second Promotion stage, each team also played against the other teams in their group once, with the top two in each group qualifying for a knockout tournament where they were joined by the teams that failed to earn promotion in the First Promotion stage, with the two group runners-up from that stage having a bye to the third knockout round and the loser from the First Promotion final having a bye to the semi-finals. The winners of that knockout tournament earned the second promotion berth to the Liga Profesional. ==Club information==
