AFA Pushes Primera Nacional and Primera B Kickoff to February 14

The federation will publish the definitive fixture in the coming days.

Overview

  • The second- and third-tier seasons were originally slated to begin the weekend of February 8, one week after the Liga Profesional.
  • Primera C remains scheduled to start on February 21, according to the AFA communication.
  • Officials framed the one-week delay as a way to give teams more preseason work and to better organize the national calendar to avoid overlaps.
  • The forthcoming fixture release is expected to confirm dates, times, and venues for the opening rounds of the Primera Nacional.
  • Clubs are reshaping plans, with Gimnasia de Jujuy set to debut in the Copa Argentina on Wednesday, February 11 against Central Córdoba and continuing preseason friendlies against Talleres’ reserves and Racing de Córdoba.
