There are three possibilities that are being considered for next year: to repeat a format like this year’s, hold two League Cups, one per semester, or the tournament of 30 teams divided into two zones of 15 that for the latter part of 2023 would lead to a Top 20 rugby style. This last one is the one that itches in tip.
And this form of dispute is not only seen with good eyes by the “small” clubs, but now the “big ones” have also joined, said Afista sources.
The former obviously because they are usually the ones with the highest risk of losing the category and with this form of dispute for after the Qatar World Cup not only would there be no relegations, but to the current 28 would be added the two that will rise from the First National this year.
In this way, for example, Aldosivi Y Patronagewhich today would be descending, will continue to First next year.
But as confirmed Telamthe “big Five” They would also now agree with that championship, betting on the aforementioned Top 20 which would take place in the second part of next year.
How would this 30-team tournament work in 2023?
But firstfor the two zones of 15the first four of each of them will meet in the quarterfinals, semifinals and final to a single confrontation totaling 18 dates.
And then, for him Top 20 The top 10 from each group will qualify. who will face each other at a single wheel, with 19 dates to play as in the old Apertura or Clausura tournaments.
But how will there be “prizes for all”, the last five placed in each group together with the first 10 of the championship of the First National will dispute the so-called “LPF First Qualifying Tournament”always at a wheel of 19 days, which will offer a classified to the South American Cup 2024.
But this contest will have additional prizes and punishments, since beyond that classification to an international contest, the first 10 will play in First division in 2024 and the 10 that follow will do so in the First National.
And for the 2024 Copa LibertadoresAnd therein lies the appeal of Top 20 for the big teams, those placed second through fourth in that contest will qualify for it, as will the champions of the first 30-team contest, the Top 20, and the Argentine Cup.
While at the South Americanin addition to the winner of the tournament “ranking” will go the five teams that are located behind those who access the Liberators.
The decision on the implementation of this new format of competition would be approved in the Extraordinary assembly that AFA will take place next month, about a month before the start of the Qatar World Cup.
