The 2023 Copa de la Liga Profesional (officially the Copa Sur Finanzas 2023, starting from the 8th round, for sponsorship reasons)[1] was the fourth edition of the Copa de la Liga Profesional, an Argentine domestic cup. It began on 17 August and ended on 16 December 2023.[2]

The competition was contested by 28 teams, 26 returning from the 2022 season as well as 2 promoted teams from the 2022 Primera Nacional (Belgrano and Instituto).[3] Boca Juniors were the defending champions but they were eliminated in the group stage.

Rosario Central won their first title after they defeated Platense 1–0 in the final.[4] As champions, Rosario Central qualified for the 2024 Copa Libertadores and the 2023 Trofeo de Campeones.

Format

For the group stage, the 28 teams were drawn into two groups of fourteen teams each, playing on a single round-robin basis. Additionally, each team played one interzonal match against its rival team in the other zone. In each group, the top four teams advanced to the quarter-finals. The final stages (quarter-finals, semi-finals and final) were played on a single-legged basis.[5]

Draw

The draw for the group stage was held on 3 November 2022, 13:00, at AFA Futsal Stadium in Ezeiza.[6] The 28 teams were drawn into two groups of fourteen containing one team from each of the interzonal matches. As the draw was held before the identity of the second promoted team was known, the interzonal rivals of Godoy Cruz and Barracas Central were called Alternativa 1 and Alternativa 2, respectively. They were:
