Huracán were seeking their sixth league title, with their last championship won in 1973. On the other hand, Platense had never been crowned Primera División champions.

Nicolás Ramírez was initially scheduled to referee the final, but he suffered a muscle injury in his left leg a few days beforehand. Consequently, the AFA appointed Facundo Tello as the referee for the final.
