The four qualified teams from the first stage were placed into two semifinals labelled "Semifinal A" and "Semifinal B". Each semifinal was played on a home and away basis. The teams that made up each semifinal were determined by their first stage standings: Semifinal A was between the teams that finished 1st and 4th; Semifinal B was between the teams that finished 2nd and 3rd. The team in each semifinal that finished higher in the table played the second leg at home. The winner of each semifinal advanced to the Finals.
