The postseason is just around the corner in La Liga Argentina. The penultimate week of the regular phase is currently being played and once said stage is over, the different instances of direct elimination will begin, the format of which will be identical to last year.
The best four from each conference will directly access the quarterfinals and will have to wait for the resolution of the different stages to find out their rival. The teams that finish between 5th and 10th place will directly access the Reclassification phase.
The first elimination phase will be the Play-In that will be played between those classified from 11th to 14th place in each conference. It will be a single game on the field of the best placed. They will do it in the following way:
- 11º vs 12º
- 13º vs 14º
Both games will be played on April 9 for both conferences. The winner of the cross between 11th vs. 12th will directly enter the Reclassification. While the loser must play against the winner of the cross between 13th vs. 14th to define the last place for Reclassification. This meeting, for both the North and the South, will be on April 13.
Once the teams that emerged from the Play-In have been defined, the Reclassification stage will begin. It will be the best of three games in a 1-2 format, that is, starting on the court of the lowest ranked team. The scheduled dates for this phase in the Southern Conference are Tuesday 04/16 for the first game, Saturday 04/20 for the second and Monday 02/22 for the third if necessary. While in the North they will be on Wednesday 04/17, Sunday 04/21 and Tuesday 04/23. The crossings will occur as follows:
- 5º vs 12º
- 6º vs 11º
- 7º vs 10º
- 8º vs 9º
Once the stage is over, the four classified teams will be reordered based on their record from the regular phase and will compete against the four best from each conference that were already classified and waiting for a rival. The quarterfinals will be the best of five games. This is how the keys will be set from the quarterfinals onwards.
- 1º vs 8º
- 4º vs 5º
- 3º vs 6º
- 2º vs 7º
The quarterfinals, semifinals and conference finals will be resolved in the best of five games. Like the long-awaited Finals for the title, which will grant promotion to the National League.
