Newell´s Old Boys will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 2-0 winners in their away fixture against Independiente.  They came away from that fixture with 47% of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 4 on target. By comparison, Independiente managed 14 attempts on goal, with 4 on target.  

Gabriel Heinze will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 6 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 6 goals and, as a result, lost some important points.  When playing at home this season, they've notched up 8 clean sheets.  

There will be mixed feelings from Leprosos, although undefeated in their last 5 league games at home, 2 of these games ended in a draw.

Atlético Tucumán will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 2-0 win in their home outing against Gimnasia y Esgrima.  They achieved 41% possession in that match and had 13 strikes at goal, with 6 hitting the target, up against Gimnasia y Esgrima's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.  

Manager Favio Orsi will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 7 goals conceded in the same period.  They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, and they have had a recent run of 3 clean sheets overall.  

They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.  

Mateo Coronel will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 4 goals in the last 6 league outings for Atlético Tucumán.
