Team news & squads
Atletico Tucuman team news
Atletico Tucuman remains without Argentine centre-back Fernando Nicolas Romero after he was expelled from the pitch in his side's defeat against Barracas Central on the back of two yellow cards.
Romero is tipped to be replaced by young centre-back Francisco Flores in the starting eleven as the side looks to solidify their defensive structure against a high-flying River Plate.
With Atletico Tucuman's forwards firing blanks in their previous three outings, the majority of the responsibility will be on the shoulders of 25-year-old Argentine forward Mateo Coronel who is the Argentine side's top goalscorer with one goal.
Atletico Tucuman predicted XI: Devecchi; Breitenbruch, Flores, Ferrari, Orihuela; Tesuri, Castro, Sanchez, Pereyra; Coronel, Estigarribia
