San Martín, Godoy Cruz and Aldosivi battle to avoid the drop today | OneFootball

With just one matchday remaining in the 2025 Clausura Tournament, the battle to avoid relegation in Argentine football has become a high-voltage drama. The final round is shaping up to be a day of heart-stopping decisions, with three teams fighting for their fate and two relegation spots to Primera Nacional still up for grabs.

On matchday fifteen, several clubs managed to secure their place: Sarmiento, Atlético Tucumán, Gimnasia, Newell’s Old Boys, Talleres de Córdoba, and Instituto confirmed that they will continue competing in the top division next season.

Now, the cruel fight to avoid relegation is down to three teams on the brink. Aldosivi, with 30 points, has a slight advantage, but is still on the edge. Right behind, with 28 points, are San Martín de San Juan and Godoy Cruz, who must pull off a feat to avoid the drop. At the end of the final round, inevitably, two of these three clubs will go down to Primera Nacional.

The schedule has set up decisive matchups. San Martín de San Juan will have a great opportunity to cling to the division as visitors against Aldosivi. The team from San Juan is obliged to win, as a draw is not enough and would seal their relegation. Meanwhile, Godoy Cruz will host Riestra at home. The team from Mendoza is also forced to win; their only chance of survival is to secure victory and hope Aldosivi does not, thus forcing a dramatic playoff to decide which of the two stays up.

The tension is palpable: the final round promises to be a whirlwind of emotions and calculations, where every goal and every point will be worth survival in the elite of Argentine football.
