Independiente-Hurricane

With the win against Boca on Monday at La Bombonera, Independiente secured a spot in the semifinals and also secured home-field advantage against Huracán . Vaccari's team finished third in Zone B, and Globo finished fourth in Zone A, meaning the match will be played at the Libertadores de América - Ricardo Enrique Bochini stadium.

It will be on Saturday starting at 6:30 p.m., with television coverage on both channels (TNT Sports and ESPN Premium), fulfilling the wish of 'Globo' coach Frank Darío Kudelka, who after eliminating Central implored: "I just hope we play the semifinal on Saturday."

Kudelka asked to play on Saturday. Kudelka asked to play on Saturday.

Huracán played on Sunday in Rosario, having faced América de Cali in Colombia late Wednesday in the Copa Sudamericana, in a downpour. Now, the Globo manager has requested that the semi-final be held on Saturday because the following Tuesday they must host Corinthians in the final match of the Copa Sudamericana group stage.

And it seems the Professional League gave him the pleasure.

San Lorenzo vs. Platense

El Ciclón was waiting for its opponent after eliminating Argentinos Juniors in the quarterfinals on penalties. Miguel Angel Russo will have celebrated avoiding a derby like River Plate and, in addition, hosting Platense . The match will be on Sunday starting at 4:00 PM , because the Nuevo Gasómetro stadium cannot play at night.

The Cyclone advanced to the semifinals on penalties. The Cyclone advanced to the semifinals on penalties.

San Lorenzo finished higher than the "Calamar" in the standings and will therefore have the advantage of playing in front of their fans, as they did in the round of 16 against Tigre.
