The annual football match was played for the first time in 2012, being contested by the reigning champions of the Primera División and Copa Argentina.

[1] The idea of an Argentine "Supercup" came up in 2012 when the Argentine Football Association (AFA), in an attempt to bring innovation to the current system, established a competition that would be contested by champions of Primera División and Copa Argentina, taking inspiration from European cups.

[2] The first Supercopa was held that same year when Boca Juniors (champion of Copa Argentina relaunched in 2011) faced Arsenal de Sarandí (champion of 2012 Torneo Clausura) at Estadio Bicentenario in San Fernando del Valle de Catamarca.

[6] As the 2019–20 Copa Argentina edition had been delayed due to covid 19 pandemic (it ended in December 2021, being won by Boca Juniors) the AFA did not held the 2020 Supercopa.

[8] In October 2022, it was announced that the Supercopa will be held in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, after an agreement between the Argentine Football Association (AFA) and the local Sports Council which includes four editions of the competition (up to 2026).
