Palermo, which had been relegated from the Asociación Amateur, joined Asociación Argentina remaining at Primera División.

With the third match drawn on points (there was no goal difference rule), a playoff was held, finishing 0–0 after extra time so a fourth match –to be played to a finish– was required to determine a champion.

Notes
[edit]- ^ a b From 1921 to 1925 there were two teams called "Platense" due to an internal conflict in the lists of candidates for president of the institution. Current Club Atlético Platense played at the dissident Asociación Amateur and the other squad (known as "Platense II") played in the Asociación Argentina.[3]
