In each group, a system of all against all is played, in two rounds, that is, with matches of return between the same rivals. At the end of the regular stage, the teams that finish in first place in each zone face each other in a single final, in a neutral stadium, to define the champion and the first promotion to the First Division. The team that is crowned champion in that final will obtain the first direct promotion. The second promotion is defined through a reduced tournament by direct elimination. Among them are the loser of the final — who is incorporated in the second phase of the reduced — and the ones located from second to eighth place in each of the two zones. As for the relegations, the teams that finish in the two last places of each zone will lose the category directly. Their destiny will depend on the type of affiliation they have with the AFA, which will determine if they descend to the First B Metropolitan or to the Federal A Tournament.
