Overview
- AFA published the first-round Reducido fixtures for Oct. 11–12, confirming dates and kickoff times across all seven ties.
- Deportivo Morón will host San Martín de Tucumán on Sunday, Oct. 12 at 21:15 at Nuevo Francisco Urbano in a single-elimination match.
- Round one is a single leg with home advantage and ventaja deportiva, so the higher-placed host advances if the game ends drawn.
- From the quarterfinals, ties switch to two legs with the better-placed team hosting the second leg, and the final for the second promotion is also two-legged without ventaja deportiva.
- The loser of the Madryn–Gimnasia final drops directly into the Reducido quarterfinals to continue competing for the second promotion place.
