Editor's Prediction
Independiente Rivadavia enter this clash as the favorites, yet it's unlikely we'll see a dazzling attacking display from the hosts. Last season, even on their home turf, the team rarely impressed with high-scoring performances and opted for a pragmatic approach: in 7 of their last 8 home league matches, Independiente Rivadavia scored less than 1.5 goals. Atletico Tucuman will likely aim to tighten up defensively and prevent their opponents from finding space up front.
