The 2017 Campeonato Nacional season, known as Campeonato Nacional de Transición Scotiabank 2017 for sponsorship purposes, was the 87th season of top-flight football in Chile. Colo-Colo won their thirty-second title following a 3–0 away win at Huachipato on 9 December.[1] Universidad de Chile were the defending champions.

Format changes

Starting in 2017, the ANFP approved a change from the European calendar season (July–May) that had been used since 2013 to a calendar year season (February–December).[2] The year calendar would have been implemented for the 2017 season, however, it was postponed for one year. In order to manage this transition, the 2017 Clausura tournament, part of the 2016–17 season, was followed up by a single championship in the second semester of the year. The 2018 season will be played as a single tournament, without the Apertura-Clausura system.[3]

Notes:
  1. Since the 2017 Copa Chile runners-up Universidad de Chile already qualified for South American competition based on their league position, the spot awarded to the cup runners-up (Copa Sudamericana first stage) was passed down to the next best-placed team, in this case to the sixth-placed team.
  2. Since the 2017 Clausura runners-up Colo-Colo qualified for the Copa Libertadores group stage by winning the 2017 Transición, Universidad de Concepción took their place in the Runners-up playoff as the 2017 Clausura third-placed team.

Runners-up play-off

The runners-up playoff was played between:

The winner qualified for the 2018 Copa Libertadores second stage, while the loser qualified for the 2018 Copa Sudamericana first stage. In the event that the same team ended up as runners-up of both tournaments, the playoff would not be played and that team would qualify for the Copa Libertadores. The Copa Sudamericana berth would then be awarded to the 2017 Transición best team not already qualified.[8]

Relegation
