Group 1 of the competition features the LPF tournament champion River and the trailing five teams from the year-end standings.
2023 introduced a calendar shift. The two annual competitions now split the year like a castle move: the Professional League Tournament crowns River early in the year, followed by the fourth LPF Cup in the latter half.
The Cup begins on Thursday, August 17, and keeps the familiar format: two zones, A and B, each with 14 teams. The top four from each zone advance to the quarterfinals, all chasing a spot in the grand final set for Saturday, December 16.
Eight months after the group draw in early November, most of the teams fighting to avoid relegation were clustered in Zone A. At the outset, the bottom five of the annual table (Arsenal, Colón, Huracán, Vélez, Independiente) were joined by the LPF Tournament champions, River, in this zone.
