Deportivo Armenio v Acassuso: last Primera Nacional spot up for grabs | OneFootball

Deportivo Armenio will host Acassuso this Sunday, in a match that will be crucial as it will determine the last promotion from Primera B Metro to Primera Nacional.

The match, scheduled for 17:00, will take place at the Estadio Armenia and can be watched on TyC Sports. The appointed referee is Hernán Mastrángelo.

The first leg ended 1-0 in favor of Acassuso, so Deportivo Armenio is obliged to achieve a good result in front of their fans if they want to keep dreaming of promotion to the second most important category of Argentine football.

On their way to the final of the Reducido, Deportivo Armenio overcame Deportivo Italiano with an aggregate of 2-1 in the quarterfinals and reached the decisive series thanks to a 1-1 draw in the extra time with Argentino de Merlo, advancing due to the sporting advantage.

Acassuso, on the other hand, won 1-0 against Villa San Carlos in the quarterfinals, then drew 1-1 with Real Pilar, also reaching the final thanks to the sporting advantage they held.

If Deportivo Armenio achieves the necessary victory and secures promotion, they will return to Primera Nacional after 35 years. During this period, they spent several seasons in B Metro and even reached Primera C.

On the other hand, Acassuso wants to make history, as the last time they were in Primera Nacional was in 1946, almost 80 years ago. In between, they spent many years in Primera C and even had a stint in D.

The team that achieves the much-desired promotion will join Midland as the teams moving up to Primera Nacional, since the latter earned this benefit by dominating throughout the year by winning both the Apertura and Clausura Tournaments.
