Dates and times for the return legs of the Primera Nacional promotion playoffs have been confirmed, which will determine the two teams that will compete for the second promotion to the Professional League. After the consecration of Gimnasia de Mendoza, four teams are still in the running for the last spot, and after the first legs were played, it has been set that the ties will take place this Saturday 15 and Sunday 16 of November. The first match will be on Saturday, when Estudiantes de Río Cuarto hosts Estudiantes at 8:00 PM. The series is all square, although the 'Pincha de Caseros' starts with a minimal advantage thanks to the 1-0 obtained at home. The 'León del Imperio', for its part, trusts in its sporting advantage: it needs to win by any score to advance to the grand final of the tournament. The other semi-final will be decided on Sunday 16 at 5:15 PM, when Deportivo Madryn hosts Deportivo Morón in Patagonia. The home team for the return leg will be the team that is higher in the general table. In case of a tie on aggregate score, there will be extra time, and if the tie persists, promotion will be decided by a penalty shootout. In the first leg, the 'Gallito' was vastly superior and secured a 1-0 victory that seemed short given their performance. Even so, they will rely on a draw to advance, while Madryn is obliged to win to keep the dream of promotion alive, after losing the final for the first promotion against Gimnasia (M). The final will also be played over two legs and will have the particularity that there will be no sporting advantage.
