Teams

The Supercopa de Chile is usually contested by the champions of the Primera División and Copa Chile of the previous year, however, since the Copa Chile was not held in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, on 27 September 2021 the ANFP decided that Ñublense, as champions of the previous Primera B season, would play the Supercopa against the Primera División champions Universidad Católica.[3]
