Team News

Velez Sarsfield
Atletico Tucuman
  • Valentin Gomez remains a doubt with Damian Fernandez expected to remain part of the central defence.
  • Marcelo Estigarribia may replace Mateo Bajamich after his goalscoring impact from the bench against Platense.
  • Justo Giani is pushing Renzo Tesuri for a starting berth but he may remain on the bench here.

Prediction

  • Velez Sarsfield have the luxury of no continental football, allowing them to make a real play for a much improved finish this season.
  • With aspirations to return to the top table after a difficult period, Velez will have been pleased to avenge their opening day defeat to Gimnasia with four points from a possible six against Newell's Old Boys and Independiente.
  • Atletico Tucuman's struggles continue as they remain without the squad depth to challenge where they had previously.
  • A Copa Argentina exit to Gimnasia leaves Tucuman with purely domestic league action, a chance to focus on gradual improvement.
