#### Playoff Finals

[edit]

The Third Stage will be the finals (also known as the Play-off) of the 2012 season between the winners of each group of the Second Stage. As Sporting Cristal had the most points on the aggregate table, Sporting Cristal decided which leg they will play as the home team. They will also choose the venue of the third match in case both teams are tied on points after the second leg.
