Union vs Atletico Tucuman

Union Santa Fe closed their irregular campaign in the Copa Liga Profesional with a 2-1 home defeat to Patronato, which left them without chances of advancing to the Fase Complementacion’s final. That result also ended their three-match unbeaten run of two victories and one draw. At home, El Tatengue lost three and won one of their last four in league action. During the summer break, midfielders Nelson Acevedo and Mauro Pitton returned from Defensa y Justicia and Velez Sarsfield respectively. Javier Cabrera (to Argentinos Juniors) and Franco Troyansky (San Lorenzo) represent the most noteworthy departures in a total of eight.

Atletico Tucuman will have to start a new era as coach Ricardo Zielinski left to join Estudiantes after three and a half years at the club. His last game in charge was a 1-0 success at Gimnasia LP, which broke a four-match winless run of one draw and three defeats in the winners’ stage. On a positive note, El Decano haven’t lost on away turf across the Copa Liga Profesional, winning four and drawing one. Under new boss Omar De Felippe, Atletico Tucuman hired Santiago Vergini, arriving from San Lorenzo.

Union seems to be the most hurt by the players that they lost during the offseason, so I can imagine Atletico getting something from this game.
