Persipura were the defending champions, having won their fourth league title in 2013.

This season saw the merging of the ISL with the Indonesian Premier League (IPL) after three years of dualism. It was decided that only four teams from the Premier League would join the new Super League.

The 22 clubs were divided into two groups (regions) so that each group contained eleven participating teams; this was due to the many political agenda in Indonesia in 2014 such as the parliamentary election on 9 April 2014 and the presidential election on 9 July 2014.
