After these matches were completed, the league was split into two halves for the second stage, where each club played every other club in its group twice, once at home and once away. The top six clubs played for the league title while the bottom six clubs played to avoid relegation.
Teams
, Kaisar and Kazakhmys were relegated to the Kazakhstan First Division at the end of last season for finishing at the bottom of the league. Because of the league's contraction to twelve clubs for this season, only the First Division champions, Kairat, were promoted in their places.Okzhetpes finished 11th in last season's competition and took part in a promotion/relegation playoff against the First Division runners-up, Akzhayik, for one spot in this year's competition. Akzhayik won this match 3–2. However, during the off-season, Vostok were expelled from this year's competition due to unpaid debts. Therefore, Okzhetpes will retain their spot in the Premier League.
