The 2022 Copa de la Liga Profesional (officially the Copa Binance 2022 for sponsorship reasons)[1] was the third edition of the Copa de la Liga Profesional, an Argentine domestic cup. It began on 10 February and ended on 22 May 2022.

The competition was contested by 28 teams, 26 clubs from the 2021 Primera División season plus two teams promoted from the Primera Nacional (Tigre and Barracas Central).[2] After the end of the Copa de la Liga, it will start the 2022 Primera División season, in order to complete the schedule prior to the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Colón were the defending champions but were eliminated in the group stage.

Boca Juniors won their second title after they defeated Tigre 3–0 in the final. As champions, Boca Juniors qualified for the 2023 Copa Libertadores and the 2022 Trofeo de Campeones.[3]

As Boca Juniors qualified for the Copa Libertadores group stage by winning the 2022 Argentine Primera División, Racing (best team in the 2022 aggregate table) earned the Copa de la Liga Profesional berth.
