Lanús eye Sudamericana final, Atlético Tucumán seek qualification | OneFootball

The Granate wants to secure its qualification for the cups, while the Decano is looking to make it into the playoffs after ensuring their stay in the division.

This Friday from 8:00 PM at La Fortaleza, Lanús and Atlético Tucumán will face off in a high-stakes duel for the final matchday of the 2025 Betano Clausura Tournament. Already qualified for the next phase, the Buenos Aires team will look to close out the semester with a win that would secure them a spot in the 2026 international cups, while the Decano travels with the hope of making it into the playoffs after achieving their goal of staying up.

The Granate had a dream semester, though with a somewhat inconsistent finish. After the loss to Banfield in the South classic, Ricardo Zielinski's team couldn’t win again: they drew with a San Martín de San Juan side desperate to avoid relegation and showed some ups and downs in their performance. However, Lanús keeps its sights set on its big event of the year: the final of the Copa Sudamericana, which they will play against Atlético Mineiro on Saturday, November 22 in Asunción, Paraguay. A win against the Decano could also guarantee them a place in that same continental tournament next season.

Meanwhile, Atlético Tucumán arrives with spirits high. Hugo Colace’s team secured a crucial victory against Godoy Cruz, 2-1 at the José Fierro stadium, a result that saved them from relegation and extended their stay in the Primera División. Now, with nerves calmed, they will try to pull off an upset in Buenos Aires and dream of advancing to the next round, though they also depend on other results. After the last match, Leandro Díaz left a spicy comment that resonated in Tucumán: “When you go looking for players, make sure they actually want to come”.
