Atletico Tucuman

vs

Club Atletico Aldosivi

Preview

Atletico Tucuman (Home)

• The hosts have won once, drawn twice and lost once in four attempts on home soil in the league so far this season.
• Julio César Falcioni took over the reins at Atletico Tucuman at the start of March 2026 and has started to lay out his plans for the club in his brief time in charge.
• The visitors will be the first real test of the Argentine’s ability to steady the ship at the club, as Tucuman are sitting 27th in Liga Profesional - Apertura 2026 with just five points from eight matches.
• The hosts have won one and lost four of their last five league matches, the last three of which have been defeats, including a 0-3 home loss to Racing Club in Tucuman.
• Leandro Diaz has been the main threat for Atletico with four goals in six league games, as he carries the majority of the scoring load for the team.
• The home side have scored five goals in four home matches but have been porous at the back, with the last two games really exposing their frailties.

Aldosivi (Away)

• Aldosivi have lost all four of their away games in Liga Profesional - Apertura 2026, conceding seven goals and are yet to find their first point on their travels.
• Guillermo Farré’s Aldosivi sit two spots below the home team in 29th in Liga Profesional - Apertura 2026 with just three points from seven matches, so they’re in real trouble.
• Federico Acevedo has been Aldosivi’s most prolific player with just one goal in seven games, which tells you all you need to know about their struggles in the final third.
• Nicolas Zalazar provides a real spark in the centre of the field with one assist in six appearances, so he could be key to creating spaces in behind Atletico’s defence on Thursday.

Prediction

• Both sides are near the bottom of the league and both have been poor recently, although Tucuman have looked more organised since Falcioni’s appointment.
• This could be a chess game for the coaches and Falcioni will most likely park the bus and look to counter, while Farré will want to patiently build up the play and suffocate the game with a compact back four.
• Tucuman may just edge it at home but the value lies in betting on both teams not to score - No at 1.61.
