Atletico Tucuman – Central Cordoba

Atletico Tucuman left good impressions in their last game, but they ended up losing 2-1 away at Independiente after suffering a sending-off in the 65th minute. Winless in their last three league games (one stalemate and two losses), El Decano remain on 37 points in the Liga Profesional, a good campaign but not enough to stay fighting for one of the continental tickets. On a positive note, Atletico are unbeaten in their last four at home, winning three and drawing one. Striker Marcelo Estigarribia is suspended for Monday after seeing a red card at Independiente.

CA Central Cordoba showed a very good version despite coach Omar De Felippe’s decision to rest most of his starters last time out, when the team beat Racing Club 3-1 at home. El Ferroviario stopped a two-match losing streak in this competition to make it 31 points in the Liga Profesional, which would allow them to stay in the top flight even if relegation hadn’t been cancelled. Central lost 2-0 to Independiente in their last away game after seven unbeaten as the visiting side in this competition (three wins and four draws). On Wednesday 11, Omar De Felippe’s men won 1-0 over Velez Sarsfield in the Copa Argentina final and won their first title ever. All regulars are available for Monday..However, coach Omar De Felippe will pick an alternative XI.

Central Cordoba won their first ever title last Wednesday when they beat Velez in the Copa Argentina final and despite finishing as one of the worst teams of the season they will play Copa Libertadores next year. They have nothing to play for here and will rest most of their starters in this last round, so Atletico should be able to end the season with a win at home where they’ve been strong lately.
