Fight for Permanence: The Battle to Avoid Relegation in the Argentine League Cup

The 12 Argentine teams fighting relegation: Arsenal has already lost the category

There are only three dates left for the closing of the regular stage of the League Cup and once completed it will be known which team will lose the category. With Arsenal already condemned by the averages, it only remains to know which will be the one that descends through the Annual Table and in the final sprint there are 12 teams fighting not to occupy that place.

With 38 games played each, at the moment Colón, Huracán and Sarmiento de Junín, with 42 points, are in a position to play a triangular tiebreaker to define the next inhabitant of the Primera Nacional. Tigre, with its 1-0 victory against Godoy Cruz, left the red zone and reached 43 units, the same line as Unión. Higher up, Gimnasia, Central Córdoba and Vélez emerge, with 44, and Barracas Central, just as Banfield has 46. A little more relieved, Instituto and Independiente appear, with 47.

There are only 9 points left at stake, so there is not much room for speculation and a setback at this point in the championship can be decisive for the future of each club. Furthermore, it is worth remembering that at the end of the season, in the event of equal points in the lower zone, there will be a tiebreaker between the teams involved, so the goal difference has no weight.
