The Professional League and entry to the International Cups They are red hot and in the middle of the dispute on the 26th there are several contenders for the title. Boca Juniors, Racing Club and Hurricane they are the greatest entertainers when there is only one date left for the season finale. On this day, River Plate, after their defeat with Rosario Central, Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata, which tied with Argentinos, and Atlético Tucumán, who tied with Unión, said goodbye to the fight.
It was a date to request from Racing Club. Behind the Boca Juniors defeat against Newell’s that gave life to the championship, on Monday it was the turn of Unión de Santa Fe to surprise Atlético Tucumán, who ended up rescuing a local draw on the hour that was of little use to him. The only one that still has a chance is the Globe, which will host Platense this Tuesday and is forced to win to dream of the title.
With the victory of Racing Club against Lanús, the Academy is the new leader with 50 points, followed by Boca Juniors with 48 points. Atlético Tucumán (46) follows him although without chances, while Huracán (44), must beat Platense and Patronato in the last one to maintain their illusion.
It should be remembered that Xeneize and Lobo owe the 81 minutes of the match on matchday 23 that will be played on Thursday 20, that is, just before the last date.
• This is the position table
*In case of a tie in the first position, there will be a tiebreaker match on a neutral court.

This is defined by the yearly table positions. It should be remembered that the first three will go to the Copa Libertadores 2023 (Boca Juniors is already qualified for being champion of the League Cup), while the next six will qualify for the Copa Sudamericana.
In turn, the other two places for the Libertadores will go to the champions of the Argentine Cup and the current Professional League.
At the moment, Gimnasia, with 65 points, is the last to enter the Copa Libertadores by the Annual Table and Estudiantes de La Plata, with 58, to the Sudamericana.
• This is the annual table
*If Boca Juniors, Racing or Gimnasia win the Professional League, the fifth in the annual table will also qualify for the Copa Libertadores and the 11th will go to the Sudamericana.
*If Boca Juniors reaches the final of the Copa Argentina (it must face Patronato in the semifinals), the other finalist (Banfield or Talleres) will qualify for the Libertadores.
