Two teams in Group B are chasing a crucial victory to close the gap at the top, with only two points separating them after the latest round of matches.
On August 23, the spotlight returns to the arena where a cross-sport clash will take place as Jujuy Gymnastics hosts Home Students in a Sunday fixture starting at 4pm. The match is a pivotal tie that marks the twenty-second round of Group B in the 2023 First National, featuring a spirited confrontation between these two clubs.
So how did they arrive here? The Albiceleste team, nicknamed for its white-and-blue colors, had been struck by a defeat in their trip to Brown de Adrogué at the Lorenzo Arandilla, suffering their fifth consecutive loss. The Matador, the other side of the coin, fell at home to Ferro and has gone through five win-less games in a row, leaving them mid-table with 23 points, narrowly behind their fast-rising rivals.
The most recent meeting between the two sides occurred on March 11, a 1-2 victory for the Jujuy Gymnastics group, thanks to Abel Argañaraz delivering a brace. The consolation goal came from Delfor Minervino for Home Students.
It is worth noting that the championship is split into two zones: one comprises 18 teams and the other 19, with round-robin schedules in each zone. The top teams from the higher section play a final to determine the first promotion, while the loser and teams finishing from second to eighth drop into the reduced playoff. Conversely, the clubs with the fewest points risk automatic relegation. The penultimate place in each group contest a repechage to avoid dropping to a lower division.
