The club debuted in Primera División in 1978, playing the Nacional championship. In December 2015, Patronato achieved its second promotion to Primera after defeating Santamarina de Tandil by penalty shoot-out. Patronato was relegated to the Primera Nacional in 2022, despite winning the 2021-22 Copa Argentina and qualifying for the Copa Libertadores group stage that same year.
The clubs with which it has a classic sporting rivalry are the Club Atlético Paraná, from the same city, with which they make up the "Paraná derby" and the Club Gimnasia y Esgrima from the city of Concepción del Uruguay, with which they make up the "Entre Ríos derby".
