Promotion/relegation playoff

As the second worst team in the relegation table, Cúcuta Deportivo had to play a two-legged tie against América de Cali, the 2012 Categoría Primera B runner-up. As the Primera A team, Cúcuta will play the second leg at home. The winner will be determined by points, followed by goal difference, then a penalty shootout. The winner will be promoted/remain in the Primera A for the 2013 season, while the loser will be relegated/remain in the Primera B.
