There are 11 teams separated by 4 points in the fight to avoid relegation

The sixth day of the League Cup might set the course for several teams that are in different fights in this final stretch of the Argentine tournament with relegation and access to international cups in their sights.

As for the lower part, this Saturday there were triumphs for three who are committed: Gimnasia beat Rosario Central 2-1, Central Córdoba of Santiago del Estero won 2-1 over Defensa y Justicia and Huracán beat Vélez 3-0 in an early final for permanence.

The other duels between direct protagonists of this battle will be Independiente-Instituto (Sunday at 3:00 p.m.) and Platense-Unión (Monday at 4:00 p.m.). But also, on Sunday Banfield will clash once morest River Plate (9:00 p.m.), Tigre will face San Lorenzo (7:00 p.m.) and on Monday Colón must host Argentinos Juniors (6:30 p.m.).

With these results, the sixth date has 11 teams separated by 4 points when there are still 27 units at stake until the definition of the annual relegation. Today, Colón (34) would be losing the category, although he has one less game. Gimnasia, Banfield and Vélez (36) appear just above. Unión and Huracán have 37 and above, with 38, are Independiente, Platense, Central Córdoba, Sarmiento and Tigre.

It should be remembered that the worst in the Annual Table is Arsenal, but since they are also last in the averages, the relegation spot would go to the second to last. Furthermore, in the event of a tie on points at the end of the group stage of the League Cup, a tiebreaker must be played between those engaged on a neutral court.

Regarding the classification to the Cups. River Plate is the only one with a safe ticket to Libertadores 2024, having been champion of the Professional League. Along with him will be the winners of the Argentine Cup and the League Cup, as well as the three best in the Annual Table. For now they would be Talleres (57), Defensa y Justicia (53) and San Lorenzo (53).

Boca Juniors (51), Argentinos (50), Lanús (48), Godoy Cruz (48), Estudiantes (47) and Racing (47) appear in Sudamericana positions. It should be noted that in case of equality of points, the location is decided by goal difference and, in the second instance, goals in favor. Just behind these are Rosario Central (47) and Belgrano (45).

On the other hand, if Boca or Defensa y Justicia are enshrined in the Libertadores or Sudamericana 2023, respectively, they would automatically qualify for the Libertadores 2024 and new places would be added to the Annual Table.
