Defensa y Justicia vs Atletico Tucuman

Defensa y Justicia’s young striker Nicolas Fernandez gave his team a point as he scored twice in just three minutes, after coming off the bench. The 2-2 draw at Lanus means El Halcon suffered a single defeat in their last seven league matches, having claimed five wins in that spell. The side also is on four competitive victories in a row at their own stadium, considering the Superliga and the Copa Sudamericana. Atletico Tucuman also came from two goals down to earn a 2-2 home draw against Racing Club last Monday.

David Barbona’s strike three minutes from time gave them an important point to open a three-point gap over the drop zone. They also made it eight games unbeaten in all competitions (four wins, four draws). El Decano also claimed seven points from the last 12 available on the past season’s league travels.

Normally I would consider Defensa y Justicia the better team here, especially at home, but next Tuesday they are playing a historic game for them, Round of 16 of Copa Sudamericana against Banfield, and because of this they will rest some players, so I have to go with the visitors getting something from this match.
