The third round of the 2026 Clausura tournament concluded this Monday, updating the Table of Averages used to determine which clubs will descend to the Primera Nacional. Sarmiento de Junín was the only team among the bottom performers to win, defeating Independiente Rivadavia 2-1 and remaining in 28th place, while Banfield dropped further due to a draw against Estudiantes de Río Cuarto. The table considers performances over the past three years, with teams like Aldosivi and Newell’s struggling in their rankings. Two teams are set to descend, similar to previous seasons, with the final decision potentially involving ties resolved by the annual table. Clubs have 15 matches remaining to improve their standings.
