Boca vs Atletico Tucuman
Boca Juniors lifted their second consecutive league title through a 2-2 home draw against Independiente. In fact, El Xeneize succumbed to a single defeat in their last 16 league games, winning 11 and drawing four. At home, Boca are on ten domestic games without defeat (seven victories and three stalemates). Coach Hugo Ibarra will be missing Agustin Rossi (who joined Al Nassr, Saudi Arabia) and Carlos Zambrano (Alianza Lima, Peru) while Bruno Valdez (from America, Mexico) is the only reinforcement at the club.
After a big campaign in the Liga Profesional, Atletico Tucuman finally run out of chances to qualify for the Copa Sudamericana following a four-match winless streak of two draws and two defeats at the end of the season. In fact, El Decano are on three away losses in a row. Several key players left the club, including Ramiro Carrera, Augusto Lotti (both to Cruz Azul, Mexico), Carlos Lampe (Bolivar, Bolivia) and Martin Garay (Tigre).
Despite some missings, Boca should have enough to beat this Atletico Tucuman that seems to be rebuilding their team after losing important players.
