El Rojo steps into the competition in round 32, facing the Águilas, a Federal A club that has fought to stay cohesive for nearly three years. The clash pits a legendary club seeking stability against a newer squad rising through the ranks, promising a tense duel that could become a turning point for both programs.
Independent faces Bolivar City in a match tied to the 32nd round of the 2023 Argentine Cup. With La Plata as the backdrop, Red seeks to end a troubling drought that has drawn scrutiny to coach Leandro Stillitano, while its opponent carries a momentum of ambition in a relatively young football history.
Independiente arrives at this meeting on a seven-match winless streak, a run that followed their early 2023 victory over Talleres. Led by interim manager Pedro Monzón, the Avellaneda club enters a competition that has historically been difficult for them, with the quarterfinals remaining elusive in previous editions.
For their part, the Águilas are making their first-ever appearance in the Argentine Cup proper. Founded in 2002 by Marcelo Tinelli to compete in the National Volleyball League, the Buenos Aires side pivoted to football in 2020 and has quickly climbed to Federal A, signaling an ambitious project that seeks to challenge more established programs soon.
