Argentine - 2017/18 Superliga


The 2017–18 Argentine Primera División - Superliga Argentina (officially the Superliga Quilmes Clásica for sponsorship reasons) is the 128th season of top-flight professional football in Argentina. The season began on August 25, 2017 and will end on May 13, 2018.
Twenty-eight teams compete in the league, twenty-six returning from the 2016–17 season and two promoted from the 2016–17 Primera B Nacional (Argentinos Juniors and Chacarita Juniors).
Four teams (Aldosivi, Atlético de Rafaela, Quilmes and Sarmiento) were relegated to the Primera B Nacional Championship in the previous tournament.
The tournament is composed of 28 teams. Each team plays the other 27 teams in a single round-robin tournament. The additional match against the main rival team in the so-called "Fecha de Clásicos" is not played in this season.



Relegation at the end of the season is based on coefficients, which take into consideration the points obtained by the clubs during the present season and the three previous seasons (only seasons at the top-flight are counted). The total tally is then divided by the total number of games played in the top flight on those four seasons and an average is calculated. The four teams with the worst average at the end of the season are relegated to Primera B Nacional
