Torneo Intermedio

The Torneo Intermedio, named " Mathías Acuña", is the second tournament of the 2025 season, played between the Apertura and Clausura tournaments. Although it consists of two groups whose composition depends on the final standings of the Torneo Apertura, a change in that composition was made starting from this season: the Apertura winners played in Serie A along with the teams placing 4th, 5th, 8th, 9th, 12th, 13th, and last in the Apertura, whilst the remaining teams played in Serie B, instead of having the teams in odd-numbered positions playing in Serie A and those in even-numbered positions playing in Serie B, as it had been played since its inception. The tournament started on 23 May and is scheduled to end on 6 July, and the winners will be assured of a berth into the 2026 Copa Sudamericana and the 2026 Supercopa Uruguaya.
