In the new year, the team expects to perform more successfully and the hosts really played their first match excellently. The team from Santiago del Estero won a home victory over Aldosivi (1:0). In the Apertura, the club plays in Group A, where after the first round they occupy sixth place out of 15. Omar De Felipe charges clearly plan to stay in the top 8 in order to play in the playoffs. It is worth noting that in mid-December, the hosts became the owners of the Argentine Cup, beating Velez Sarsfield (1:0), the best team in the championship last year, in the final.

Atletico Tucuman
ArgentinaCurrent form
Last year, Atletico Tucuman performed much better than today opponent, taking eighth place in the regular championship of Argentina, gaining 40 points in 27 matches. In the Apertura, the team got into Group B, so Central Cordoba does not compete with Atletico Tucuman for a place in the playoffs.

Before that, Atletico lost in friendly matches to the Chilean Universidad Catolica (2:3), and then to Union Santa Fe (1:2). In Group B, the team currently occupies sixth place, but in case of a victory, it can catch up with the leader Banfield, which has two victories under its belt.
