Atletico Tucuman – Talleres
Atletico Tucuman showed improvements on their visit to Banfield last time out, when they registered an unlucky scoreless away stalemate. That result means El Decano are on three league matches without a win, recording two draws and one loss in that time. Therefore, El Decano are on 11 points in the Copa Liga Profesional group A, which keeps them four points behind the last Copa Sudamericana spot in the aggregate table. At home, Atletico have been unbeaten in their last nine matches at Estadio Jose Fierro, winning seven and drawing two since losing to Argentinos Juniors 2-1 in May. Marcelo Estigarribia and Adrian Sanchez are expected to return on Wednesday after overcoming their injuries.
Talleres fans will have felt heartbroken after their unexpected 1-1 home stalemate against Sarandi Arsenal, who got relegated last Friday, as they conceded the equaliser in the 90th minute. La T are now on three Copa Liga Profesional matches without a win, drawing two and losing one. They continue to perform an irregular campaign, accumulating 12 points in group A, but it’s still enough to stay sitting into second spot of the aggregate table, holding a seven-point gap over the first non-Copa Libertadores’ place. Talleres have been weak on their travels lately, losing their last three away matches.
Talleres has been very disappointing lately, they couldn’t even beat the already relegated Arsenal at home, so I’ll trust Atletico here who are fighting to get a Copa Sudamericana spot.
