During the 2026 Torneo Clausura, Independiente has been focused on its home fixtures at the Estadio Libertadores de América.

In late August, the club prepared for a Matchday 7 encounter against Gimnasia y Esgrima de Mendoza. The match, officiated by Sebastián Zunino, followed a previous 1-1 draw between the teams in February.

By mid-September, the club entered the 9th round of the tournament. Ahead of the scheduled Sunday, September 13 derby against San Lorenzo de Almagro, Independiente sat sixth in Zone A with 13 points. The team has sought to improve a home record that yielded only 4 points from 12 available, a performance that contrasts with their away form, where they secured 9 points from 12. The upcoming derby at the Estadio Libertadores de América - Ricardo Enrique Bochini is viewed as an opportunity to regain momentum.
