Argentina 2026 football season standings and race

Overview

The 2026 Torneo Clausura remains highly competitive as clubs vie for playoff positions and international qualification. In the annual table (Tabla Anual), which determines 2027 Copa Libertadores and Copa Sudamericana berths, Independiente Rivadavia, Argentinos Juniors, and Vélez Sarsfield currently occupy the top three positions. Belgrano has already secured a Libertadores spot by winning the Apertura.

In Group B, Rosario Central and Argentinos Juniors continue to contend for the lead. Rosario Central maintained their momentum in matchday 13 with a 3-2 victory over Atlético Tucumán at the Monumental José Fierro stadium. Gastón Ávila scored twice in the opening six minutes, but Atlético Tucumán, led by Julio César Falcioni, equalized before halftime through Alexis Canelo and Ramiro Ruiz Rodríguez. Substitute Julián Fernández secured the win with an 80th-minute strike, allowing the Jorge Almirón-managed side to maintain an unbeaten streak and share the lead of Zona B with Argentinos Juniors.

Argentinos Juniors also maintained their position at the top of Group B following a 2-1 win against Aldosivi. Meanwhile, Independiente Rivadavia showed resilience with a 3-1 comeback victory against Racing Club. Despite conceding an early goal to Matko Miljevic, Independiente Rivadavia responded through Gonzalo Ríos and Fabrizio Sartori, with Álex Arce scoring in stoppage time to move the club to seventh in the group with 11 points.

While Independiente Rivadavia continues to lead the annual table, the race for the championship remains tight with only four matches remaining in the season.
